    SRT Brake pads

    If you're only driving on the street, I'd go with the Greens. They stop just fine and produce very little dust. They do squeak sometimes, but not much. The stock rotors, although really heavy, are great for the track or street, and, at about $125 each, are cheap too.

    Servicing Front Brakes

    Don't forget to tell DC that you're a VCA member. It makes a significant difference in price.

    Servicing Front Brakes

    I don’t understand why your pads would be wearing 3 to 4 times faster on the trailing edge. In my experience I’ve noticed that the pads do not wear completely evenly from the leading edge to the trailing edge of the pad, but the difference is pretty minor (less than a millimeter in all...

    05 Heffner Twin Turbo Viper SRT-10 For Sale

    You MUST take it with you and drive the Ring! Nuerburgring is to road course drivers what Mecca is to Muslims, or at least it should be. At 17.5 miles, this Holy Grail of road courses is over four times the longest road course in the US. Toss in the Autobahn and, well, it's just too exciting...

    Securing Extra Wheels to Sloan Trailer (no tire rack needed)

    I've been carrying an extra set of tires with me to the track in the back of my tow vehicle, which has worked okay, but hasn’t been without its own problems. Accordingly, I started looking into having fabricated a custom tire rack for my trailer, which I had actually seen before at the track...

    2-inch seat lowering kit - passenger side?

    I've had the two-inch kit installed on both sides (and the amp installed) for almost a year and a half with no issues. I listen to CDs all the time. It's the one-inch kit on the passenger side that causes issues with your amp, not the two-inch kit.

    Changing only Front or Rear Tires and not all four?

    My relatively new Sport Cups, now with 11 hours of track use, took an awful beating at Roebling Road Raceway a couple weeks ago. The track is composed almost entirely of nothing but sweepers and one long straight. The track was a hoot, very fast and with lots and lots of drifting, but it...

    TIRE PRESSURE QUESTION FOR NON RUN FLAT TIRES

    I use 25 rear and 26 fronts when cold in Sport Cups, which brings them both to the same 34 or 35 on the track when hot.

    Michelin Pilot Sport Cups Brand New

    How old? What's the story on why you're letting them go? The fronts seems a little skinny and a little tall. I'm used to using 295/30ZR18 on the fronts.

    Why use Grabbier Brake Pads in Front? Brake Pad Life?

    Two Brake Pad Questions: First, I’ve been using the Brakeman 3 pads all the way around and have been very happy with the performance relative to stock pads on the track. However, I know some of you have been using grabbier pads up front (such as Comp Coupe pads in the front and stock in the...

    Passenger Seat Removal.....

    I don't think that's possible. The whole seat comes out in one piece.

    Has anyone bought a new helmet lately, SA2005 certified?

    I just bought a Bell Vortex SA2005 from OG Racing, which, by the way, gave me such a great deal that I had to confirm that we were talking about the same helmet. I do a fair amount of business with OG Racing...

    Passenger Seat Removal.....

    To the extent it helps, the two rear bolts are actually just nuts that go over bolts that come from the floorboard. Move the seat forward and use a box wrench to take them off by feel.

    To anyone with the Autofrom rollbar . . .

    I have the Autoform roll bar (the original version) and track my car all the time. VIR and K&E required that I install the 2-inch lowering kits so that I could get as far below the roll bar as possible, which I thought was a good idea too. I'm 5'9" with a long torso and the two-inch...

    Having problems finding someone to change my tires!!!

    You might give Luke at TireRack a call. TireRack knew who had what tire changing equipment in my location and who could change my tires. I suspect the same is true of your location.

    Isaac Device?

    Great feedback by everyone. I think the best argument for the Hans devise is Chuck's point—if compliance with the SFI rules is required, right or wrong, the debate is over. For me, however, that’s not important at this stage because such rules do not apply to me. I did notice that nobody...

    Isaac Device?

    What do you guys think of the Isaac Device? According to its website anyway, it appears to provide every bit as much safety in a crash as does the Hans Device (which I do not own and have not tried). On the down side, it doesn't release with the six-point and has to be taken off separately...
