Oh yeah that now makes perfect sense!

 

good times.

 

Car suffered no damage -- just a couple pounds of mud on the wheels, which put them out of balance for the drive back to James Mullins' house. Until I pressure sprayed all the mud out, I couldn't exceed 70 mph without excessive vibration.

 

Hey Rick,
what kind of wheels are those?

 

Oh man! Great story. Could happen to anyone! Don't laugh too hard!

 

Tim,

SSR GT1s.

 

Is that kinda like when Roberto Guerrero blew pole position in the 1991 Indy 500 becuase he spin out on the parade lap??

Not a great moment for Roberto or for Porsche...

 

Just in case some of you missed the other post which was locked.

Rick wasn't the only one to spin out in the rain due to torque oversteer.

 

HA!

The freaking pace car loses it. Now that is funny. Can you imagine the embarrassment?

 

This guy was an impdiment to us all. Here we have several $million in high performance cars (S2000s, NSXs, and Corvettes) crawling along at a snail's pace behind this guy, who's driving like a grandmother because he's got the wrong tires on the car. We must have averaged 5 mph for four laps of the track.

I got in trouble because I got impatient to go fast at the first opportunity.
