Amazing!!
That in-car camera setup is awesome. Must have its own suspension, the video is crystal clear.

Sean basically puts on a driving clinic of rain racing, amazing job and excellent drive!!!...I had a few races in the rain back when I competed, it's a lot more focused, more corrections, I dunno if he had rainex on that windsheild but we always used rainex on the outside and shaving cream on the inside (to remove fog which can be blinding as well. As for visabilty it's poorest on race starts when you have cars gridded in front if you're not on pole or 2nd on grid. He modifies his line to find the aread where runoff has bled the water out on track, the dry and wet lines (of ideal grip thru a given corner) are different. As for being able to see the car in front when it seems blind the trick is offsetting your car slightly toward the left or right brake light, hard to see on the video, your main objective here is to have a somewhat plausable line of sight to the brakelight and not be in the direct path of the rooster tail completely, again hard to see on camera...where it looks completely blind...

Excellent driver, and a very entertaining video. Watching from approx. the 7 minute point you can see how smooth the driver in front of Sean is and that is so critical in the rain. I've done a bunch of rain races and I kinda like it. Here is a video (albeit not nearly as entertaining as Sean's) of me racing at Summit Point, WV in this years SCCA National, on a very wet track:

Most of us were on dry tires, I had no video in my car. The guy who filmed this was in a Miata and he spun and ended up facing the track. Then you see my Civic Si come along and do a 360.
