Default Some video of my driving at Infineon / Sears Point

I posted this over in the Norcal section, but figured some of you RR folks might be bored enough to watch this as well

It rained for most of the day, but cleared up for a couple sessions. This was during one of them. I'm still driving a bit conservatively, not wanting to repeat the same encounters with the walls that some drivers had earlier in the day.

That was me at 2:22. You could've waved!

It was appallingly, diabolically slippery when it rained - I still haven't recovered.

Have a close-up:

oh really?!? Didn't know you were there that day! I definitely would have stopped by and said hello. And yes I do have to do a better job at waving when passing.

The rain was definitely very nasty. I highly commend GM engineers for designing a good AH system for saving amateurs like me from having unfortunate incidents with the wall. Nothing like pulling a slight drift coming out of 8A to get the blood boiling!
