Next weekend is the big pcar day at Sears Point/Infineon

Everybody ready?!

I should mention that I'm not, I cooked my pads at THill last Friday and am debating new P50 pads on the PCCBs and going with iron all around. And I thought Porsche's had no brake issues...

Hmmm, I don't think Porsche has "brake issues" per se...especially GT3's. Never had a problem at THill with brakes...maybe Laguna tho. What pads were you running...stock?

Brad, Get some PFC's and put those PCCB's on the shelf. Then you won't have any "issues". Hope to see you Saturday.

C.J. - Looking forward to it. You meet up with Colby at the ALMS? I had to settle for the TV version, and it looked great, so must have be superb in person. You probably know that Tony Kanaan is "TK6" over on 6SOL and loves his 7GT3. Great to see him win (even tho he's not driving a RS Spyder!). He seems to be a very cool guy.

Yeah, pads are about half way gone. toasty but not burnt

I went with a set of motorsports green pads and ducts for now, will pick them up from TRG tomorrow AM

Next season I will go with steel (only 4-5 more days for me this year)
