TheTed replied to the thread Hood Venting Options for Cooling.Not at HOD. I didn't see anyone looking under the car for drips while staging either, but nobody got waved off for that that I could tell. I also have sat with the windows down and AC on while staging for other events on hot days where windows up... (see full post)

Junkyard Dog replied to the thread Dark Horse OEM Pad wear per track day - does this sound Reasonable?.Serious question here - all of the complaints I see are S550 and older cars.Do the S650 cars have the same ICE mode complaints? (see full post)

bnight replied to the thread S550 Upside Down and on the Wrong Side.This is about where my S550 sits in with the PP3 around 520 nm. So you should be great. (see full post)
GAR944 replied to the thread S550 Upside Down and on the Wrong Side.So work has finally begun on the HP upgrade. First port of call was to get a baseline graph of how the car currently stands stock. So the most amazing dyno run of a stock engine. WooHoo :eek: 307kW or 412Hp and 515nm or 380lbft at the wheels on... (see full post)-

bnight replied to the thread Dark Horse OEM Pad wear per track day - does this sound Reasonable?.The Split on brake compounds in the rear is because the ABS Ice Mode is triggered from the rear pads. This was the reason I got back to OEM rear pads and Ferrodo DSUno pads even though I had R16/R12 pads that are used like 2 times on track. The... (see full post)

ArizonaBOSS replied to the thread What Does Optimal Lap Teach vs Delta?.Hey man--I have some comments and graphs on this in the bottom of my post here, don't feel like typing it all out again. (see full post)-
TheTed replied to the thread Dark Horse OEM Pad wear per track day - does this sound Reasonable?.I can say that from one track session, the car stops just as well with these replacement pads. Still no noise, no brake fade, or anything of the sort. We'll see how long they last. Car is due for an oil and diff fluid change and I'll look closer... (see full post)

TheTed replied to the thread Hood Venting Options for Cooling.For me it isn't difficult having been on both the giving and receiving end of turn signal point-bys. It's covered in the drivers meeting, and if you think about it, a normal point-by is using hand turn signals in the same opposite manner. I... (see full post)

sarahgroot replied to the thread Superbeater does Roebling Rd.Hi guys that was me driving! Rob suggested I make an account so here I am! (see full post)-
sarahgroot replied to the thread What Does Optimal Lap Teach vs Delta?.Optimal laps, to me, are always very inaccurate. Especially on aim.

Junkyard Dog replied to the thread Dark Horse OEM Pad wear per track day - does this sound Reasonable?.Ugh. That would be terrible. I was really hoping replacements would have the same performance as the original set - maybe hold me over until Ferodo gets around to producing S650 brake pads, and by then maybe my driving ability will have...
