There were six S2000s out today at TMP, Nice to meet new people.

Finally got on Track at TMP, really enjoyed the challenge, nice to get initial runs to get times to improve upon.

Just a heads-up. TMP will have lapping this Saturday evening, as well as Friday. $100 as usual.

Yeah I have a catch can. It's definitely momentary tire lockup. Puts a whole new meaning to threshold braking.

Still getting use to the new brake pads.

I want to go back for tomorrow's session but need an alignment as well. Pain in the butt to hook up the trailer and drag the car to a shop, unload and reload it.... And all that before 5pm.

You got a plate on the car... just drive it!

I wish I was closer to TMP because their open lapping schedule works better with my work schedule.

The Monda is a beast on the track! Nick man handles that thing.... looks super fun to drive

My setup... in a nut shell is HSD coils, J's baffled oil pan, Carbotech pads, K&N intake, berk hfc, hondata, eibach fsb, wing, full front splitter, ss brake lines, rpf1's w/ Proxes R1Rs...
I still have a few things that need to be installed and i need an alignment...

I hit a nasty divot at TMP right before the kink the last time and finally decided to throw out the factory alignment. Hoping to get back on TMP on July 11th and crack a new personal best. Only my 2nd time out there!

I'm running Carbotech XP10s front and rear - my rears were always hotter than my fronts at TMP by at least 15 degrees Celsius. How do you like the Carbos? I love my set but they screech like a banshee.

I'm running the XP10's in the front and the xp8's in the rear... I'm getting some good fade at the end of the straight so I'm gonna look at getting the xp14's i think soon.
And yes the squeal like crazy when driving in the city but they don't dust as much as some of the other pads which I like...

Just curious what your brake setup
Is and at what lap time you were fading them at?

Me.... I run the following:
Motul RBF600 brake fluid
Stainless Brake lines
Carbotech XP10 Front / XP8 Rear
OEM rotors
OEM calipers

I'm definitely out braking my current setup... at TMP I ran a 1:22.2 but that was on my old tire setup Toyo Proxes R1R (255's).

I just swapped to Trofeo R's and they are considerably faster than my R1R's so I'm hoping to be in the 1:20 or below mark.
My next major upgrade will have to be my brake setup...
