3) You still feel like you're going balls-out just because its a bit slicker

Keep VDC on, and pace yourself properly. Its fun!

That video is nothing sadly - day 1 was absolutely pouring on one or two sessions. The other 2 were just raining a bit.

It looks like you had the same or similar competition. A Camaro holding up everybody, a Corvette that got squirrelly, a BMW that you slowly reeled in.

How did you like that banked turn? Looks like the Nurburgrings bank.
