Since I DD the Z, I don't just drive it hard always. I drive it based on conditions. Both road and vehicle conditions. Rain or tires worn? I take things a little slower and give myself a little more room to brake and such. Rain and tires worn? I give myself a lot more room

Brace yourselves for the brake failure threads:

At least we won't be debating oil coolers for a bit.

The article says he was able to walk away from the crash, so that is a good sign

Thanks to guru, we met him yesterday and had dinner with his family. So bummed that this happened as they were celebrating having a good start position for the race. When we hung around the paddock area, they were actually working on the brakes before we headed to dinner. I'm glad he was able to walk away. He hit the wall at 136mph according to their data.
