[johnnybravo!]

Uhh well not quite..Had a blast at another NASA HPDE 3 event @ Buttonwillow track..GTR was clicking off 2:06's and the best lap for me was an ok 2:14..full second slower than my best time 3 weeks prior..25-30 cars in our run group so it was tough getting a clean lap..I brake faded so bad that i came within a foot of smacking his right side bumper in turn 2!! scary..Stoptechs long gone so its stock brakes/Porterfield R4S pads..Carbotech X10 pads were fried up in last trackday...Will retire the car after he next track event..UTube vid link will be here soon...peace

i'd love to - if she were my weekend queen. unfortunately as my daily driver i'll reserve the krushings to 2nd-3rd gear pulls with z06's. Sure.. it's not as exciting..but that's why i'm thinking about selling. i can't have the fun with it that i want without having another daily driver. gotta get serious about getting into a house while the market is down in the next couple years...so i really can't justify additional unecessary car payments

[johnnybravo!]

oh snap i should run lower than also. Last time I ran i set them at 33 front 35 rear shoot i forgot it's been so long. but i'll give that a go. you doing the roval in november? i'll try to shoot for that one, just have to get my correct brake pads since mike@purems sent the wrong one's but it's all good, some miscommunication. that and a realignment then i'll be good to go. you find your b5 yet?

That really depends on each tire though. I run my Toyo R1R's at 35 hot front and 38 hot rear and they work great. I used to run them at 28 hot front and 30 hot rear and they were under steering everywhere.
