Great day at the track today for (almost) everybody. Not to hot, but only a misting of rain that lasted 5 minutes and didn't really even dampen the track. Got 3 good sessions, my student promoted to Blue, 2 good sessions on the skid pad, and we were visited by such dignitaries as Jazz, Matt P, Noah (nice meeting you!), several spouses (including Mrs. VaSteve, who picked up my ballast weights for me in Manassas, and VaSteve then brought to the track for me!!!!). On the down side, my muffler didn't even make it through the weekend, with a bigger hole than before (it doesn't even sound better). Ben did well, too (he probably broke the muffler
 ).

TR, I'm sorry to tell you this, but for me, it wasn't a personal record...there was that rainy Sunday at Mid-Ohio a couple of years ago

I forgot to mention above that Paul from Radial Tire was also there. He confirmed to me privately that in addition to wheels, he also sells tires, especially radial tires!
BTW, he mentioned (esp for you drivers with 17 and 18" wheels) that the 888's are on sale in many sizes, and that people seem much happier with them this time around. He couldn't speak to the 16" sizes, however, when asked specifically.

Since I couldn't be there Saturday and Sunday, I'd appreciate a few notes about Sat.-Sun. happenings for the dV article, esp. Vets on Track stories. I need ASAP, meaning no later than Monday.
Did it rain all day Friday?

HEAVY use of the skid pad. We should have an article on those BMW guys.
