Hope you like it.

Standing water before the flag stand....very interesting! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)
Generally your lines were pretty good...some humble observations.
Good line over the top at turn 1
A little too far inside on entrance to turn 2, looked like you gave up 2-3 feet on the entrance.
a little wide at turn 4, 1/2 car width
5 and 6 looked good.
7 and 8 good
wide at turn 9
10 good
11 tough to tell since there was traffic both times.
Overall a very good 1st time.
some of the lines may have been better than they looked. Seemed like your camera placement was different than before or were you slightly zoomed in?
I will be interested to see your dry lap.

I wish Bill Pickering would post the laps I did in his old 914-6 a couple of years ago. Would love to see what he and Doris have been studying (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Are you going to make it to Laguna on 12-15?

Thanks for the words, Dan.

914's don't handle so great in the wet at speed.
( at least when I drive them ) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

Street tires.

I had to baby every corner, making sure not to come in too fast or try to exit under full power.
It was that slippery.

It was still fun and it made me drive smooth.

Any abrupt input equals going off track or a very close call.

For all those going on the 15th with CDS, I hope it is dry for you.
