Sports cars by nature are meant to be driven in nice weather, but when they are raced in a competitive manner you have to learn what the adverse conditions will do to your car.

Racing on a roadcourse in the northwest will test your driving skills, racing is done on wet and slick conditions. Throttle position as delicate as driving with an egg under your right foot helps keep the car going forward. Push too hard in the improper attitude an you may find yourself going in dougnuts or at least slidways. With the track surfaces changing through the practice day the driver’s should hav encountered all they will need over the next two days of racing.

Midday lunch to all was provided by Bigfood, the fine food vendor at Pacific Raceways. Pulled pork, slaw, chips and drinks will pick you up on a rainy day at the track.

The ProFormance Driving School instructors helped out those who had not raced the track’s 2.25mi. surface.
