Jim,

No need to be confused! Your instructor was right. After the resurfacing last spring Mid-Ohio was AWESOME! Of course, tire life went to hell, but the grip was great. By mid-summer the concrete was back to its old slippery self in many places (apex of chicane into Keyhole, for example.)

Two messages to take from this:
1) depending on condition, wet concrete can be very grippy or
very slippery, and
2) tracks can and do change!

That is part of why even returning to an "old" track provides opportunity to learn the track.

Mike
