    No Hammer Splined Strut Bolt Install

    That's awesome, I don't recall having to hammer it back in though. I've done it twice about a year apart so I cannot recall. Regardless, the main objective is getting it out and this tool can do just that? Correct? If it can, that's awesome because I've spent an hour at best trying to hammer it...

    Just to confirm, Motul 600 is the way to go? @DonPatr0L, how many events did you participate in using the same fluid?

    S197 Tire wear thoughts?

    I mean visually, it appears to be wearing really nicely. Insides should wear out first but truly, that's at best anyone can offer you over the net. The best way to tell is skipping the cold lap and coming straight into the paddock. Using a pyrometer like the one below...

    Race Brake Pads

    Yerp, however, I'm glad I've added it to my list of tracks to frequently visit. It's great and you're right, unfortunately we reach 120 mph and we're on the brakes not a second later.

    Race Brake Pads

    I actually heard the opposite which is why I only tracked at Road Atlanta. However, I will say consumables at AMP was reasonable if not comparable to Road Atl.

    FP350S parts now available from Watson

    I'm confused... how is that better than the Vorshlag camber plates.... What am I not understanding. With Vorshlag, I can jack both sides undo the bolts a few turns, throw the wheels in whatever direction, tighten the nuts down, bring the car down, and torque to 18 ft/lbs and call the camber...

    2021 Mach 1 Differential Overheating on track

    Glad to hear it got replaced. Did they say anything about this? I only ask because I just installed the AWE Switchpath to close the valves when blackflagged but I wished the harness came with exhaust shielding but others haven't had issues yet so I suppose the clearance is what it is. Anyhow...

    Tire Advice

    I do not as I carry lots of massive bin of tools and gear including a canopy in the trunk. I look at the weather and I make a choice of which wheels/tire compound are going to be used the day of the event.
