After yesterday I'm definitely pushing up the timetable on those SS clutch/brake lines/Motul fluid. I had some pretty nasty fade about 10 minutes into the 2nd run when we hit all those S turns.

If you are going to ZDayZ, you should try to get it done before the Dragon. If you can't do both within that timeline, then I would say that just the fluid replacement will do wonders! I did 2 years on the Dragon and several track events on stock lines and Motul fluid and did not experience any fade. Glad I upgraded to SS lines since then, because I do notice a slight improvement over stock line in pedal response.

I'm not doing ZdayZ but I have performance and style and the following weekend i have import/kit nationals.

I didn't get a chance to swap the pads and flush the fluid this friday, but will be doing it Next friday so it's good and new for ZDayZ. Already have the SS Lines. :tup:

I'm either going to pay Cody to help me get all of that stuff done in a day or just turn it over to a shop.

With his schedule and him prepping for ZDayZ (I think I saw his name on the registration list?? :ugh2: ) he may not have the time...

Im gonna do that break fluid swap.. eventually.

I actually got my dealer to install the SS lines and fluid. They had a little confusion, but I asked Justin from Z1 to call them and he walked them through it over the phone. I don't remember it being more than $150 or so. I could be off with the number, but they are very familiar with the car so that factored in on the install.

I do have a bleeder for the brakes that you can borrow if you need one. (I've never used it). If you are going carting, I can bring it with me.

I've got a concert to go to that saturday unfortunately. I'm assuming Cody and his buddy have everything we need.

I had a great time on my first cruise! Big thanks to Randy for setting a lively pace on some great roads, and to Michael for making sure I didn't get lost. :)

The only time I was concerned about getting lost was when Chris and Randy crossed that interstate median and took off before we could clear all the traffic.

Yeah, sorry about that one. That road didn't look too easy to keep track of the person in front/behind you so it was take off or get stuck... Traffic wasn't very forgiving either. :ugh:



I'll hopefully have some of my videos edited/posted tomorrow. I need to make that GoPro mount that AK made cause apparently my placement on the rear glass is too far back/too low to really see the road in front of the car. :(

My pleasure. Thanks for letting me sample the Berk system. It sounds great. Looking forward to carting this weekend, even though they might seem slow after our pace this weekend! :icon17:

Oh no worries. We found you. I'm really sorry I didn't rig up my gopro for that. Woulda been awesome.

i knew you guys would be hauling azz... :shakes head:

Well, spirited driving was the point of the exercise...

That was a little more than "spirited". I slid through one or two of those turns ;)

:facepalm:

...aaaand the facepalm is for what? Getting the point of a cruise?

we kept it under 120 - mostly...

Lol I topped that on the Veloster cruise :|

So, when's the next one?

Soon, I hope! :)

Somebody is Hooked! HPDE events are next in line for you! :driving:

:shakes head:

I'll be doing One at Summit Point this weekend :tup:

As soon as I get an oil cooler! :)

:tup::tup:

Just run with the hood off JDM style like the Hondas.

Did you see all those s2000s at the event yesterday... hott damn them rides were fricken badass.

I'm still not clear on how I've earned a facepalm. The Z is made for things like this cruise.
I'm not sure "topless" would be a good look for me. :p

:facepalm::facepalm::shakes head::shakes head:

Good idea. I know mine makes a HUGE difference. I would strongly recommend that you upgrade your fluids also.

Have fun! Which track will you be on Saturday? I might show up for carting a little early and watch a session of yours. Interested to see how your suspension handles the track. Contemplating an upgrade to that for me.

Isn't that the point of owning a "Sports Car"?? :ugh2:

I know for certain there were a few turns Sir Issac Newton was doing the driving instead of me... :bowrofl:

What?

:iagree: Randy led cruises ftw. :tup:

A girl talking about going topless, and you shake your head?? :wtf: is wrong with you man?!!? You need to have your T levels checked... :icon17:

:iagree:

Good Oil - Check
Brake Fluid - Upgrade!!

ATE Super Blue FTW

What?!? Am I so amazing that I render you speechless? You may think facepalms speak volumes, but unless they are apropos they say nothing.
Thanks for the tip - a fluid upgrade will be in my future as well.

All this talk about going topless and swapping fluids. NSFW!!!!!! :|

Is he at the track where we'll be Karting?? I'd be up for getting there a bit early to see him do some laps. :driving:

whatev.... :yawn:
