The Roebling Road National weekend presented a complete mix of torrential rain soaked track, a damp track and fully dry track. But while it was wet I took the opportunity to explore the limits in EVERY turn. I was running 4-year old very worn rain tires. Not all the turns were very pretty, but by the end of the day I was a bit more stylish ....... OK maybe not so much!!! In this first video the track is wet - make sure you watch Cliffie Brown on my tail through T9. He is one VERY TRUSTING friend!!!!! (around 4:16) 

 

 

 

 

The 2nd video is in the dry during the STL race. I went out with tires that were already grained from the SM race, and I had nothing for Stefan. I held him up for the first 15 laps and when he got by me I tried to stay with him. When I realized I was fighting a losing battle, I decided to have some fun and see if the rain laps had taught me anything... You be the judge
