what suspension are you running?

Bilstein HD and Eibach springs. ireland swaybars. 225/50r15 toyo ra-1's

nice lines...dont be afraid to early apex the left hander on top of the esses,you will track out more and carry more speed into the oak tree.

Yeah. Im working on that. I know there is a least a second maybe 2 in the car.
Earlier that day we had an E46 M3 banged up pretty bad. Spun drivers left after dropping a wheel at the exit. So I was leaving a bit on the table. I gotta drive this thing home.

use the fully enclosed case for the camera if you are not already. helps a bunch for the wind noise.

I've never run VIR full, and I'm heading there in May with PCA FSR. I've been to South a bunch of times, and my car (S50 and 125mph before bitch) eats pads and rotors...to the point of not being able to do the entire 3 days of runs on one set. What pads are you running F&R..and how hard is VIR full on brakes in your car?

Thanks, Ed

Im running the Performance Friction 06 compound pad in the front. Hawk ht10's in the rear.. Chinese rotors, braided lines and Motul 600. I am having pretty good luck with them. Wearing like iron and I daily drive them. Other than them being noisy I REALLY them. I took off Hawk DTC60's I didnt like how they were tearing up my wheels.

I might run the PFC01's next just to try em.. By turn 4 im getting a very small amount of pad fade. I think this is due to the fact that I really push my brake zones, especially into 1 and then have to drag them a bit in 3 they just dont have enough recovery time. It might be solved by ducting. I might see what effect that has before the pad change

Thanks for the feedback.

PFC06 not available for the caliper config I have, so I'm going to try DTC-60 front (instead of HT-10 which I crumbled) and PFC06 rear with Superblue.

You ran DTC-60 in the front? Can you compare them to HT-10?

Sorry I never ran HT-10 on the front. I do think the 60's are a very good pad. I saw some crumbling on the edges of them though. I haven't got much air going to them so that might have something to do with that.
