Good info in here - I'm also looking to pick up some track pads and new tires before the CDC event and this autox season. Ross, are you still running the Falkens?

I know he's planning on running them in the back. Not sure about the fronts though.

ok, how about we get The Napster to take screen caps of video of your cars running on the track, then uses a fancy application to calculate which car is riding with a Worthington 1000 safe in the trunk
Literally LOL'd!!!

Hmmm...I'm still using my original set of OEM pads. I never get brake fade (except when the wrong fluid was used...d'oh). Guess I don't use my brakes much.

Shenandoah and SP Main are harder on the brakes then VIR or BeaveRub. I got 4 laps on Shenandoah before my OEM pads went away in a major way. Made for a interesting entry into the bowl.

This sounds like a challenge.

Pads arrived yesterday and Snell2005 helmet arrived this AM. Now I just need to get my fluids and get to work. I wish I could find Ate Blue locally, but I guess there isn't mutch demand for it out here in the sticks.

I can't believe how fast I got the pads, less than 3 days UPS ground. They must have put them on the truck right after I ordered them Monday.
