This weekend was the SVRA Mid-Ohio Grand Prix. This was my first time on this track and wow it is a beauty, with a long straight and well linked-up turns. Here's a link to the first two laps of today's Group 1 feature

It was threatening rain about 30 minutes before our 11:00 AM start, then looked like it was clearing so no one put on rain tires (I don't have them anyway!). Shortly into the second lap it started to rain and I was amazed how it immediately became extremely slick, perhaps because the line is very polished.
In any case I lifted and you'll see the red mini pass me just as the starter throws up a yellow. We wound up running a few more laps under double yellow then they flagged us in and that was fine with me.
