I think you will have problems without cooling mods at your experience level, at least the oil cooler. You can get by without the brake cooling, but you will probably

I think you will have problems without cooling mods at your experience level, at least the oil cooler. You can get by without the brake cooling, but you will probably burn up your dust boots. I have run XP-12 pads on AD08 tires with no problems, I think the 10/8 combo will work. Just be advised, without brake cooling, I get about 4-5 days at Road Atlanta on a set of XP12s with my stoptechs. This car is a really easy car to drive fast, especially at those two tracks. I'm doing RA the first weekend of June with PCA.
