This should be fun.

So as I was wondering in my post: Has Jeff ever raced in the rain?

Probably. He’s raced in plenty of stuff outside of NASCAR. I think he just needs more time to get acclimated to the DPi in general.

At least Continental now have a fairly decent wet tire.

I’m just trying to come up with what that might have been. Jeff was always very focused on his NASCAR obligations and did less outside of it than some other drivers.

I don’t recall him doing anything in PWC or other IMSA sanctioned series.... maybe something around the Grand Am era?

Only thing I know of is when he did the Rolex 24 back in 2007 with WTR.

Jordan Taylor mention in interview, Jeff rain racing in 2007 had him nervous. Before the race. But as a team, they also have to depend on the new guy not messing it up. He came out of pits clean this time.

Maybe he secretly drives his street cars when it rains, idk.

Appreciate the update. I’m usually glued to this race but I’m catching up with work all weekend :(

You’re not missing much. Just Lamborghini Huracans spinning out or crashing into stuff for the past hour or so. And it’s raining.
