Lakeside Laps v.6 - 16 June 2012 (breakfast)

[seangti]

Car going in for the brake upgrade next week if lucky~

Try get a couple of hundred kilometres on the new set up first to bed it, or gently warm up speed (say 3/4 braking) at lakeside to bed them. I'd changed pads and off to QR within 100km's and they started fine, than lost the pedal for a few stops, than was ok after that. Was a bit of a moment and less room for "moments" at lakeside.

My G-Tech lap timer just turned, so keen to play around with it.

Will be interesting to see how your times compare with the sprint series times on the QR website.

I will just be having a best guess with me in-car video against youtube's timer.
Hoping my new windscreen mount turns up before we end up at Lakeside but not holding my breath.

Will be interesting to see how it goes out there after the upgrades.
Lakeside isn't nearly as hard on the brakes as QR is.

I know, but then I can practice my late brake and will not get Red brake disc and smoking pads at the end of the section

If I can get it into the car this week, I will have more than 100km of driving on them for sure. Now I am just waiting for the disc to 310mm disc arrive then I can book the workshop.

Hey Clay, I really like the fact other car makes are being invited to our beloved happy laps and was wondering if you knew anyone in the Mini2 club?

I'll have to do sprints to validate the times. Sprints are on the smaller circuit and I've modded the car since, I was running only suspension mods, stock power and brake setup.

I don't know of anyone in the mini 2 club but we can try inviting them along to one of the laps sessions in the future.
I thought it might be a good idea to get other makes out there so we can see how they compare in a less restricted environment.
Also spreads the euro appreciation

Yes I agree, its a great idea!
