my kart felt fine to me. I'd agree, driving the first stint on the wet asphalt as it dried, was an absolute blast.
for the record Jon, i was not being a jackass when I pitted and spun on the slick floor. I may have come in hot, but you get used to being able to stop on dry pavement, then drive down a wet road and brake on a surface nowhere near the traction level you are used to, and a recipe for disaster occurrs. I apologize if I made us look like apes, but it should have been mentioned when they were prepping us and I don't feel that it was entirely my fault. I like the way it was remedied though and I kinda feel that it needed to happen so that they can be prepared for their next events, as I'm sure this is not the first time it has ever occurred.
Thanks a ton for organizing such an excellent event and arranging it in such a matter that it went off so smoothly. I had a blast and I think I speak for all of us that it was a fantastic experience that we would definitely like to participate in again.
