        Sure, when you're not going across an inch and a half of standing water on greasy concrete, a quick countersteer would do the trick.

        I goosed the throttle early, the car stepped out on standing water. If I had countersteered any more than I did, I would have more likely than not pointed it right at the opposite wall, one without tires, and a lot closer. I wasn't going to try and be a hero.

                Nope, that video was turn 13, Friday was turn nine. Both in the wet.

                I need to ease up on driving with my testicles.

                      Little more video from that day when the track dried out a session later.

                      Little cleaner line ;)
