Even better, skidpad exercises are much more fun, and easier on your tires in the wet...
I would not pass this up just because of rain.

so how was it?

It was good... lots of rain so minimal wear on the tires. Who else was there?

I didn't really see a bfc circle forming, so I just talked to the instructors in my group during lunch. I was one of the two almost identical e30 325is REDs. Skid pad, slalom, braking.

I was there and so was Charles (TheMuchacho). We were in Group A. How about you?

and maximum mud on the car. anyone else from group B?

Yeah, I didn't see a bf.c circle either, except for me and Charles. But everyone at the event was pretty cool. Driving in the rain was fun, but not standing in it. But it didn't seem to bother anyone at all. :)

Charles/TheMuchacho: It was good to meet you man. I have a bunch of pics to process. Hope the ones I took with your camera came out well. The ones on mine were okay, but a lot of noise (grain) cause I bumped up the ISO to 400. I'll post some up when they're ready.

I was in the Alpine 95 M3 with LTWs and Charles was in the Silver e46 330. During the skidpad exercise, were you in the group with the smoking Mustang? I remember the two red e30s.
