[Fot] Nurburgring race Video

Thank you very much Jason,

I call the IMSA car secretly "Monster" because it can be a bit scary.
These huge tires do stick well but then they let go with not much warning.

With these old rain tires.....man, that engine just changed between wheel spin or overbraking the back end from just going off throttle.
You can see how the car is waving towards a corner because the back wheels are going slower than the car just from that engine drag.

But the good thing, when I dried out, the old rain tires were the right compound to drive on the dry surface. Then it was easier on the dry patches.

Lesson learned....the AVON rain tires don't last longer than 4 year, better replacing them after 3 years.

Cheers
Chris
