It's not easy driving in the rain (all of Saturday) and when the track is dry in some spots and wet in others (first half of today) it is possibly more treacherous. That said, there is great value in experiencing wet track conditions.

I am glad the drivers of the two crashed WRX's are physically safe. Among yesterday's 4 wrecks, I heard one driver was pretty severely lacerated by his harness.

i got one snap shot of the GT3 from sat in the parking lot. the front was just dirty, but the rear was pretty banged up. i agree that a wet/dry track is more challenging since it's probably harder to judge which parts are wet/dry.

Heres my pics... they are mainly pics of my friends cars though and couple subarus and some other stuff. I'm too lazy to sort it out and edit so I just did a batch resize and uploaded. I'm still practicing my panning technique.

Martin, I had no idea you were sirhankwilliams on here, either I completely forgot or I don't pay attention too well 
Daios: looks like you got a few pics of us, cool. I brought my FXT at the last minute, Noah was in the silver WRX wagon, our buddy Wes in the black WRX, both their first time driving on track and Kevin did one session in his Outback XT. He stopped after that because it would roll over so far it became a little sketchy.
It was a great day! I was tempted to go back to the shop and bring back the RS, but there wasn't enough time, but the FXT did quite well.
