The Ring is relatively easy on consumables.
I'm 6 track days away from replacing all rotors and pads.
I'm on my 15th? Set of tires?!

15th! LOL

I'm planing on replacing the CL nuts, rear hubs and bearings soon.

Don't think it is necessary: friend has done 35000+ km's with his 991 GT3, but if it breaks it can get really dirty.

Normal tracks kill consumables..

All 4 corners? I need the parts list...
IM thinking about changing them as well but my race shop is keeping a close eye on the CL and hubs. So far zero indication of wear.

I will be at 32,000km soon.
I estimate that I'm overdue for the rear and about due for the fronts..
I forget what the recommended KM are for front and rear TRACK miles.

CL's: all corners every 10.000 km track use
Rear every 10.000km track use
Front every 20.000km track use

From the last RCN race.
I'm not sure what happens here, maybe a puncture on the way down into the compression in Fuchsröhre.

Close...

Wow, I only get 4 days out of SC 2s and 8 days out of my PCCB pads. The SC 2s heat cycle out after about 16 sessions. With my camber and set up tire wear has been very even and tires always have tread left but no adhesion.

I've got good news: My suspension from RCN has been revoked so I'm heading for the Ring this weekend for a nice mix of racing and tourist driving.

This race I'll not share the car with my co driver so I'll drive the full race alone.

I'm already looking forward to the after-race-beer
