lolz these pads are unreal...no fade...whatsoever. i am not good enough in my eyes to warrant getting suspension + slicks. i only have 6 events of track experience. pretty funny though, the car dives forward like mad these pads are so torquey. i love them because there is very little pedal travel and it makes toe-toe very easy for me. although i have little experience, i am quite hard on brakes and melted my stocks. on ICAR (1st vid) I run stock Mintex pads because I don't have time to change to the cobalts and they fade withing 5-10 minutes...it's actually not fun sometimes.

so next mod next summer is camber plates because this car understeers like a pig and is heavy as shit, even on an essentially square setup. love it though.

The track organizer said it's 1 second slower than the one we run normally according to their testing. They put a huge block from left to the right middle of the chicane. They just wanted to force people braking there and reducing the risk of running off hill.
Hopefully I can run the original configuration later this year, then I will have a good understanding what I can do.

In the advanced run group Mark with an E92, R1's, XR2 pads and KW Club Sport was in the 2:03's.

As a final comparison a 2010 GT3 with a semipro driver (he was driving a client's car so taking it easy), did a 1:58.

somebody timed me yesterday and said I managed a 2:39, which I was pretty happy about considering I am running PS2s and I wasn't even going for a hot lap (the extra 175 hp from the blower certainly didn't hurt). I think with R comps, if I tried for a fast lap, I could manage a 2:35.

2:35!!! that's a goal worth shooting for. Think I was running around the 2:40 area but can't be sure. A vette that I passed and was consistently faster than said he timed a 2:43 so think I was right around the 2:40 or so, but really was waiting for sunday to have some fun. Going to be a long winter...

Nice good job guys at RA. Wish we could have made it up. It would be fun next year if we can find a way to organize an event where we all can make it for the weekend.
