Its raining, the course is very very slick, but they Drift Rain or Shine!!

Kenji vs Nate
Kenji leads - very slippery, the drifting is much slower and more precise, but Kenji pulls away, 8-2 adv
Nate leads - slow into the first turn, Nate goes wide, Kenji sees an opportunity and passes Nate around the first turn. Kenji looks to have more rain experience and shows everyone how to drive the course! Kenji moves on!

Dan vs Andy Sapp - This is the upset special as both drivers were the lower ranked drivers.
Dan leads - Dans initiation into the first corner was shaky, Andy had to correct, but Andy loses distance to Dan on the rest of the course, Advantage is even
Andy leads - Dan made a mistake on the initiation and slowed due to his e-brake, Andy maintains drift around the course, Dan catches up but Andy doesnt make any mistakes and moves on!!

These runs almost look like slow motion due to the wetness. The moisture stopped and the course is slowly drying out...

Blake leads - Blake is faster, Bill loses drift around the teardrop, blake pulls away, 8-2, OMT!

Jason vs Erin
Jason leads, lots of understeer, Erin passes Jason around the first turn, they keep drifting and Jason spins around the teardrop. Erin adv 10-0
Erin leads - Erin goes wide, Jason goes to pass and Erin closes the door, Jason goes to pass around the teardrop, Erin keeps drifting, great run! Erin moves on due to the first run.

Yea but that bolt was already getting there. The day before he left he said he heard clunking in the back of the car, but due to time he didnt have a chance to check it out I guess because he needed to be in St.Louis the next day. Guess thats what it was.
