Look for the spots where the water puddles, the course does not drain well in all corners. Also, if wet be careful getting back to throttle after getting back on the front straight until after you cross the painted start/finish line as it is slick when wet and your rear tires will break loose in a hurry.

Have fun and post some video.

Thanks for the heads up on Mid-Ohio Jim, the forecast calls for showers on Friday (practice/qualifying) in the pm. The revised schedule shows Group 6 has a 8am practice session with a early pm qualifying session. Unfortunately they are lumping Group 6 with Groups 10 & 12a so it will be a large field of cars.
