Brand new NT01, never driven yet on are scary in rain. There's a video on youtube from a Cayman GT4 owner with me in front that shows it in semi-dry conditions, but it doesn't give the full experience of how scary it was. Sudden oversteer everywhere and understeer all the time.

Couldn't get them broken in until the last session, and then a BRZ ran out of fuel and cut the session in half due to a tow. Will have to hit up Thunderhill East in January again, give myself a proper re-introduction to my car after the big upgrades.

In the final session, I got to follow a friend who also has an E92 M3 similarly modded but minus 300 lb in weight reduction, he has aftermarket seats, and a little more power due to cat deletes. Then rode with him as passenger. Fun times! Learned a bunch of car control in the rain, all of us kept on losing our shit.

"Virtual best" according to HLT was 2:01, I don't really buy it. Will need to see if I can get near that next month!
