new nt01s aren't bad in the rain. Heavy standing water should be avoided at speed, but wet track is ok. More grip than street tires still.

In heavy rain, you will need to have your wits about you and be ready to correct NOW.

If you have a way of doing so, bring some decent street rubber if the heavy stuff is coming down.

This is nice to hear.

I built a tow-hitch for my boxster, so I drag a little trailer with spare wheels, tools, chairs, etc with me. So I'll have the street tires I show-up on, and then some brand-spankin' new NT01's on the spare wheels. :dance:

I'm excited to get there with a "known" setup, instead of just driving what I had. I think that's a step in the direction of me finding some consistency and working on getting BETTER, instead of just trying to go faster.

Thanks again for all y'all's help and encouragement!

I'll send some pics. :-)
