That's because it didn't rain! Let me clarify this.
We're talking about two different events here. The
above quote was referring to a local event two weeks ago,
and the weather was perfect. The 99% runs were at the
Harrisburg ProSolo, where that pesky little cloud kept
hanging over G-stock all weekend. At Harrisburg, there
were two cubes in the car, validating that mine was
working correctly.
Something tells me that I'm going to have to make some
of these files available for the perusal of anyone who's
interested. I can't believe that I'm the only driver
who can score their highest overall rating on their first
run of the day, and have their ratings go down as their
times get faster.
