Keep in mind that as you start getting more experience and faster you will probably start experiencing some brake issues (and maybe the dreaded ice mode which I have concluded is brake fluid boiling). Especially at VIR wher the back straight is much longer. You should really consider installing some brake cooling ducts. This weekend I was out braking every other car in HPDE 2 in, as you know, damn hot weather! Zero brake fade and not even a hint of ice mode. Although, I did blow out my driver side inner fender liner. I should have taken the time to remount and recenter my driver side duct before going to the track. And I probably should have re-installed all the push clips and bolts after my last oil change. Oops... Luckily, one of the S2000 guys works at a shop at the track and he let me use his lift to do some track side repairs. Nothing that a few zip ties could not fix. Now you see why I bring so many tools to every track day. Nissan 370Z Forum - ResIpsa's Album: ResIpsa - Picture Here is the link to my brake duct DIY. DIY - Brake Cooling Ducts
