    Brake question for track guys

    Greg, thanks for your response, but I don't think an air bubble in the line is an issue. I completely change my brake fluid before every track event, and I alternate between ATE Super Blue and ATE Amber so that I know when I have completely flushed the lines. And I have had two different sets...

    Brake question for track guys

    Mark, thanks for the response. Regarding the color change on the calipers, I don't know whether it is baked-on brake dust or that the paint got "cooked," but whatever it is won't come off! And the brake fluid did not boil -- I was using brand-new Motul that day and the pedal was firm and the...

    Brake question for track guys

    Hey everyone, I have a 2006 Coupe that goes to about 4-5 track days per year. I have a brake issue that I want to get your opinions on. Last summer, I did a track day in really hot weather -- so hot that my red front calipers turned a brownish red from the heat. I noticed afterward that...

    Thanks Robert! If you really want a high-res version, PM me. I have the original file, since I took the shot with my camera. The original is probably 3500 pixels wide or so.

    These were taken November 2 -- we had a great, mid-70's day in Talladega. Now it has gotten really cold in Atlanta, and I doubt we will get another track day in before March ... :(

    Weigh In: What you think About This Snakeskin Green Coupe with Matching Asanti Wheels

    Re: Weigh In: What you think About This Snakeskin Green Coupe with Matching Asanti Wh Jared, I like SSG, particularly the ones with stripes, but I am not a fan of those wheels. Maybe I can see it in person next time I am up there. Chris

    06 Coupes on the Track

    I took these shots on the pit straight, where you are braking from about 100 down to about 60 (or at least I was).

    06 Coupes on the Track

    This past weekend, Achilles99 and I did a track event at Talladega Gran Prix Raceway in Alabama. Here are a few pics of the action ... Both cars performed well, and the track was a lot of fun. Hope you like the pictures! Chris

    Ray, welcome to the club and the VCA forum! Just like you, we have also had several Corvettes (including a Z06), and my wife still drives a Corvette as her daily driver. I like Corvettes, but I have LOVED my Vipers! Congratulations and enjoy! Chris

    Right rear suspension creaking/popping?

    I am hoping that someone can assist me in trying to fix a noise coming out of the right rear suspension of my 06 coupe. The noise sounds like a creaking or popping noise and seems to occur when the right rear suspension is unloading, like when I apply the brakes or when transitioning in or out...
