Up coming track days 2010?

It was awesome. No official thread or anything, just talked some in the OG thread. 4 sessions per day and on Sunday it started raining after our first. I was actually able to get my fastest lap time (that was on video) when the track was partially wet. I felt like I adjusted my line a LOT faster than everyone else. I was surprised how well the Yoko's gripped (once they were warm), even in the rain.

1:39 was my fastest lap that I was able to get on video. Put down a couple of those and a fair amount of 1:40s and some 1:42s.

Oil temps seemed to peak at 220 and I did see 225 for a short period once, but no higher.

My brakes were definitely getting hot at one point. Session 3 on Saturday I was getting a little pedal flutter but once I put down more than 30-40% pressure it was fine. No fade, probably just thinned fluid and hot pads. I'll be doing a fluid flush and upgrade before I go back to an event and probably get some slightly better pads.
