If race day has a very small % of rain....any session that is wet will most likely be skipped...especially at Watkins Glen with ZERO run off.
If its full rain ... and we are going out ..disconnect rear bar , soften front bar and soften shock dampening....go from there
ok cool, ive done similar tricks in wet weather events, i was just curious

It was nice meeting you too Dwnshift. I appreciate the kind words on the photo. I have a lot more but haven't had the time to do anything with them yet. If you are interested I'll shoot you a PM if there is anything decent to look at.

You weren't the only guys to have changing weather conditions. The DPs and GTs also got wet yesterday - although none of the gulley washers like on Saturday. A few photos from yesterday's 6 Hours of the Glen

Watching the Watkins Glenn Race now! OH? Who's this? Who is ahead of the Porsches? Hmmmmm? Could it be? Wait, yep its #14.

As of right now my daughter and I are watching #14 JAEGER in 6th position! My daughter is becoming a gear head; oh Gog help me. I'm laughing cause she is yelling at you to, "hurry up they are catching up to you!" and cheering you on. We love it. She says she likes the cool black and red colors you all selected; better than mine. LOL. Anyway, we are big fans and hope to see you in person on the track some day.

Is there anyway to get to see the car in person someday at one of the events; like in the pit or something? Just curious. Ok, going back to watch the race.

Just go to a race and get garage/paddock access. I've seen the car in person twice now. All the Doran guys are real nice and friendly.
