temps upper 30's then it drizzled, then outright rained - I ran my best laps in the pouring rain - which doesnt make much sense but I think I was just dialed in and working to be extra smooth - which is all we needed to do early in the day anyhow

Suggestion
the really cool part of that day was we let about 1/2 dozen really crazy motorcycle racers run a 30 minute session right before lunch...and one more 20 minute session later in the day.

Suggestion
naturally tires were a hot topic in the paddock - My 888's are dead, bald - I opted to leave them home and just run 6/10ths on my street tires...then I discovered my street (conti DW) tires were at (or beyond) the wear bars in the rear - YIKES!

I run B or A on PCA days...depending on who is there and who I hope to hook up with and play with

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

You know, Like the OP, I normally don't mind if I get caught, it's the law, I know, and if I was cooking, or running stupid, it's well deserved, but when I'm doing the exact same as everyone else, and I get pulled out (in the 996, of course), that burns me up.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Test driving a 991 yesterday. About 90 mph in a 45 zone. Cop saw the temp tag in the windshield and said to himself "freakin Porsche dealership, these people need a track" and didn't even pull us over. Nice cop.
Ivan - I'm curious - what do people run at that kind of trackday in the way of tires - the pics show snow at the edges and a wet/damp track, assuming temps are in the 30's?? Is anyone running the normal complement of track tires (i.e. shaved, slick, etc) or is it more high performance summer rubber or even high-performance winter tires? Seems like it'd be a big conundrum the night before?

Motorcycle cop just lit them up behind the whole group of traffic and went right to me. Laser.
naturally tires were a hot topic in the paddock - My 888's are dead, bald - I opted to leave them home and just run 6/10ths on my street tires...then I discovered my street (conti DW) tires were at (or beyond) the wear bars in the rear - YIKES! they actually sucked all day and I was putting a lot of heat in them (about 6 psi first 15 minutes) I dropped pressure all day till they hooked up at about 10 PSI lower than I would run them in warmer days - it was a guess....all i could do is lower them - they sucked
a few people had grip on street tires, and I saw some MPSC's - brand newless than 100 miles, he said he had grip (GT3RS)

as for the tailwind down the hill - I dont get it, you mean the C4S? That's my buddy Dave!
OH - I get it - hahahah 120 mph - stiff tail wind, down hill
hahahaha
my little 3.2 can pull a 130 in the dry down the straight on GPS - which is about 137 speedo (I hate when I find out I am slower than I think - I sold the GPS - I am sure it lied to me all the time)
Another VA person here and we've been running V1s in our cars since the late 90s.
Contrary to what cops will tell you, it's only an equipment violation which means it doesn't show up in your license or carry any points. Additionally its a myth (since the 80s) that they can destroy it, but they can confiscate it but in my experience you really have to **** them off.
At least in NoVA the county/city guys don't really care or notice that often. Staties run detectors that will pick up the V1 and I've had a few ignore real violations to chase me down for it.
In the end its only a $50-75 ticket in my area (based on jurisdiction) plus court costs.
I'm not advocating that you break any laws, just clarifying the reality of running them in VA.
Nice!!!
It's very cool to see the snow bordering the track. Around here(Philadelphia area), all HPDE and AX is shut down for the winter.
What group were you running with?
Dave - thanks, I thought the snow was cool as heck too!
This was open lapping all day, no run groups - just drive as much as you like. I run B or A on PCA days...depending on who is there and who I hope to hook up with and play with
the really cool part of that day was we let about 1/2 dozen really crazy motorcycle racers run a 30 minute session right before lunch...and one more 20 minute session later in the day. I had never seen bikes run so it was interesting...and man did they look cold! My heat was on high but with the window open i was now all that warm in my car so I can imagine they were freezing - saw a lot of finger wiggling when they came in to the paddock....
here is a facebook link to some of the motorcycle guys - I cannot find a website link
sorry to link facebook -

I ran my bike at Putnam a few years back in 30 degree weather. It was freaking cold. I could barely get through a 20 min session before my fingers went completely numb. And I rode stiff as a marble statue as I was so anxious about poor grip. But needless to say, I had tons of fun! You've got me looking for winter DE opportunities--it seems like a good chance to work on my wet weather/slick track skills.
I find the coldest I can ride with ventilated race leathers is about 10-12 degrees C, anything less than that it's no fun IMO!! Does look cool though with snow!!
OH YEA!!
I put down about 30 minutes towards the end of the day with it pouring and only 3 cars on a 2.4 mile circuit --- it really honed the smoothness in a hurry
I called the day "Need for S......SMOOTH!"
Faring exhausts some heat on the legs and wind breaks legs tucked in. Any upper half in the wind gets a blast though.
You did pass the water cooled in the picture?
