Default New York Safety Track in Cayman R-First Time On Wet Track...FUN!!

Pictures/Video from my latest track day at NYST run by fellow Rennlist member Cooperyau. First time on track in a car in the wet, SO MUCH FUN! Anyone else here enjoy running on a wet track? Almost wish the weather was worse to make it more challenging.

Also loving the new wrap from MC Designs, can't stop looking at it and snapping necks everywhere I drive it haha













Still running our Race Headers/Valvetronic Exhaust System on my Cayman R and LOVING IT!

If you think the rain is fun, you should try a DE in the snow!

I have done a few days in the rain (and one session in a snowstorm), it's a great opportunity to really work on car control on the track.

Thanks Mark! Yeah I don't use my radio lol. I like to think of it as a mixture of both

Nannies were off for most of the event once I remembered to hit the button (although that doesn't truly turn them off 100% as we all know). Didn't have RainX but my detailer spray ended up working pretty well lol.

Nice line, nice engine noise. Anytime it rains while driving, I always think of my tires and how grateful I am for choosing one that handle the rain. And grateful that the sport I chose can handle the rain. Rain can sometimes put a downer on many things, but for driving, we just adjust and move on and have fun.
