And if anyone is interested, there is a $500 set of barely used Porterfield R-4’s in the trash can across from the gas pumps.

I hear ya Mike ... I guess it is the pioneer in me, just figured I would try something different in case it was better than what anyone has done thus far. I think when I go back it will indeed be for a full weekend, and I think I am going to try both the XP10's and some EBC Reds and Yellow. I'm not going to be comfortable out there until I can get something I have confidence in. Also will get the brake ducting done ... hopefully I can stay out there longer than 8 laps LOL.
