Day 3 on the AR1's was not as fun as the first two. Fought some issues with a temp sensor sending the car into limp mode in the first sessions, finally discovered that if I didn't clear the code it would work fine. Ordered a new sensor so hopefully no more of that. Only my second time at BW but there is a lot more time in the car with some more laps and some less dead tires. They corded the session after this, and felt pretty crap all day - understeer or oversteer, never multitasking or feeling good. Also the new GoPro seems to have some issue with the mic level or wind noise cancellation making the audio suuuuuper quiet for all but one turn.
Also ordered rear wheel bearings - getting some odd noises and a whole lot of pad knockback which was less than confidence inspiring. I just did the front bearings/hubs but the rears are original at 115k so I'll do that first before I head down the road of anti-knockback springs or something like that. I've never needed them in the past, not sure why this platform would be any different.
