The rest of the Pocono configurations are not worth it, or at least nothing that does not include 2 connected straights (no straight-infield-straight) |

There's at least one BMW chapter in the area that allows X-cars on the track, I know because I've sworn to never run with them again because of this. |

classic newbie mistake. He had a long time to correct his bad turn-in but still kept on going obliviously instead.

Hope you guys have a good time at LRP this weekend.
I came across a vendor at another site(porsche site) that is having a sale on PFC pads until April 2. I got a quote and it's $50 (front+rear) less than the best pricing I have seen for e9X m3 PFC08s. PM me if you want more info. Not sure if I can post it here.

thanks. OG racing prices are still $ 45 more than the sale.
The question is it the stoptechs or the wheels and tires?

I had concave apex arc8's but they wouldn't clear a bbk so sold those, picked up brakes used and bought TRM mt1-r's for cheap. Not as pretty as arc8's but everything fits and works perfectly... |

Got to bed them in earlier today, I'm not going to lie. I know the calipers don't make a difference but I will say I noticed a difference in stopping after pads reached temps. I attribute that all to increased rotor size, going from 325x25 to 332x32.
CJ - I can't take pics for sh*t. Next track event you're going to take 5 good shots of my car, in exchange I will give you ONE point bye. Peter - I'll see you tomorrow buddy! |

ha thanks man!
sorry, no vids. first 2 sessions i asked for an instructor just to learn the line. 3rd session i had my lap timer on but no vid, and 4th session when i finally turned on vid, it didn't work lol. but i will say lrp is definitely one of my new favorite tracks and the fact that it's only 2hrs away makes it a huge plus. i'll be going back for sure... bye bye njmp! |
