Nope... rain is most dangerous within the first 5 minutes of rain fall.

Dude, that's horrible. Those cars can only put down 240-250whp MAX before the internals start to melt. What's even worse, is you are racing on PCH 3 days after one of our members dies on the same road.

At what point did you decide racing in the S was a smart (or not dumb) thing to do when there is water on the ground?

haha yeah, I drive my S like a grandma when it's wet. Not saying the s2000 is hard to drive per se, but I have learned to respect RWD in the wet very fast. Also, not sure exactly when the rain occured, but for the first 20-30 minutes after it rains, the roads are the slickest, because all the road grime and oil on the road hasn't washed off yet

Be careful out there!

Really, You think these are better than the Hankook RS-2's? I am going to be needing a new set of tires when I come back from my army training, and everyone had been saying RS-2s, but I will take a look at the fuzion zr1's. Thanks!!

was that member racing when he crashed?
if he was it was his own risk, but if he wasn't i am sorry for that.
PCH is not a good place race! always have some of dirts from mountain.
a lot of cars at day time!
