I'm in a 330, but not the one in the picture. They gave me an Arctic 330, same color as my 328.

The rain was actually fun.

I did the skidpad, but probably pulled zero g's

--I was all over the place with the rain, as was everyone else, except for Mike--our instructor.

I agree the rain was really a good thing. What I did on the skidpad was far from drifting--I was mostly backwards. I need to work on my driving skills!

It was lot's of fun and a great road trip with my daughter.

I really need to work on my driving skills. I'm planning to visit the Performance Center again, probably for a one-day driving course. Driving someone's else's car is liberating!

Ase2dais, shimshimhada and myself are planning to do just that sometime in 2007, perhaps we could all go together

Yeah I can imagine doing it in the rain being fun and also good to learn how to control your car in inclement weather. Nice pics

Awesome, I'll be sure to bring it up with Ase. The idea came about during one of the HPDEs we attended throughout the year.
