    Thanks Dave. T11 is the one that sucked. I was getting very significant brake fade from about the mid point of the race. It was my own fault, I haven't bled them since the first weekend this year. I've been running the R888's all year. They're great......shaved. Unshaved, not so much.

    A fresh motor, LSD, and calipers are worth their weight in gold in this series. Mine is just a rebuilt head. What really stinks is that Mike Skeen has the most powerful car in the South East. Oh, and all the talent. What a dick.
    It looks like the repave didn't do much for the "plow zone" at T11's turn-in. Plus it must be difficult to really tackle that corner whilst trying to defend your position...having to enter the corner on the inside.

    That's surprising, I thought you guys would bleed brakes atleast once each race weekend!

        Actually the new pavement helps quite a bit as long as you enter at the correct speed. That gets hard when you're playing chicken with another guy and still pushing the braking zone well past turn in. Both times that I went off there I was still full on the brakes all the way to the grass.

        Yeah, I've just been lazy. Whoops....

          Just watched the second SE30 video... I can tell you it's not easy holding back from putting the Coupe up for sale right now and building an SE30.

          Except it isn't as popular YET in SoCal, so I don't think the fun-level would be as high as it is over by you guys where you have 20+ E30's pwning faces left and right.

          GL, post more videos!
