[Straight 8 Racing]

Russ,
In my limited experience of wet weather racing it seems that if you can drive hard enough to keep the tyres up to temperature then you can maintain an acceptable level of control, that video indicated a very wet day and tyre temps may never have been acheived, the river across track syndrome is something that you simply cant deal with, Winton has a corner as you approach the main straight that is notorious for its river !
You are right about being a passenger once things let go in the wet, I lost it at Phillip Island a couple of years ago and travelled about 200meters backwards on the grass at a section called "Haystacks" It was a sureal moment as cars were passing me on the track as I sailed serenley backwards, my Motec logger showed my speed as I left the tarmac as 180kmph, I felt extreemly lucky to survive
