2021 OLOA Day Two



Day two had pending weather coming in and it does not fail to arrive. Due to rain it was not safe to run the road course as there is VHT traction compound on the straight part of the track that they use for drag racing. When water gets on the track on the traction compound, you can't walk on it much less race on it wet. 

To remedy this, the shorter SCCA version track-cross was used from pit exit to the end of the back straight away. All cars got three runs, two somewhat dry and one wet run. As the rain got worse the the higher number cars got to okay in even more water. 

Our first run was ok although I did totally miss one of the corners coming in too hot on the recon lap which made the timed run more cautious than it should have been.


 The second run I tried to make up for it and totally messed up, and blew two corners. The third was in a driving rain, and let's just saw we survived with no nannies, aka, PSM ABS or Traction control. All the thing that money can buy.
Standings after day two 1st in class and 42nd overall.
