Why Dubai? You'll send a car there, but not to the 25hrs of Thunderhill Enduro? It's only 1 hour longer

It's excruciatingly cold with the windchill. I remember it being 3 or 4AM and I couldn't feel my hands or my feet. 25 mins with the heater on in the car, I realized this was one of the few events where a driver wants to be in a race car with his full suit and no AC.

You should of been in our pits last year. We was the warmest pits in the whole paddock. We had a 100,000 btu heater blowing into a set of canopies that were walled off.

I shouldn't complain. We DID have the best gourmet food I have had track side. All the driver's wives were constantly attending to our pallets. Food tastes so much better 30 below freezing

I bought them marchish but didnt put them on till halfway through this season. Im not sure if the street miles did it? but I only put on maybe 5-600... and 5 track days or so. The pads had meat left.

Ive had 2 sets of VRs, and never had any problem like this.

cracked oil pan, blown RA-1s, brake pads falling apart... not a good year for me
