They will be my next purchase after what I've seen them go through 1st hand. No more motul either. Pedal gets soft after a day n a half

I should take the RS, I go right by roebling every time I go to south carolina

Magic driving from the lot of you NOS crew!! You guys are all really gutsy and respect to you all for participating in such an unforgetable adventure... Those armcos are certainly quite intimidating and in ones face...

Maybe with one of the future mancations you can organise an east meets west theme and get together with the west coast boys... Any good venues in the mid US to track on?

Quick question on the PFC08s pads, what is initial bite like for a dual purpose car? Are they streetable or do they need the heat thus track only pads?

Thanx for the vids, the laughs and for letting the rest of us tag along on your adventure via this thread. Awesome job

I will ship my car west some time, maybe next year depends on Amex and marital condition around December when I start planning. I guess West is scared of East. (NJGT excluded) We will have to go there to show them how we roll, LOL! can't wait to run Laguna, Infineon, etc.

PFC are much better for street driving, I never change pads. Less noise same dust as Pagid. Initial bit is more then Pagid, but that went away or I got used to it. No problem.

no problem and the speeding ticket wasnt that bad. 82 in a 70 and i guess anything over 80 is considered reckless driving so he he knocked it down to 80 in a 70. there were cars flying by me, i think he just wanted to check out the RS

Peter,

I've been trying to show them how we roll! And I'll be back east!
Ahh, but Armando, you are a special case; You're bi-coastal

Since you are one of the few lucky ones that gets to drive both coast; Is there are difference besides the weather? Next year I hope I can do the Ring or West coast..

They are all must do tracks!
Randy should be ashamed of himself to live on 6 hours driving from RA and never been there.....
