Black Betty got some pretty new shoes.
I know, I know, it's an automatic. So I'll have plenty of folks who are "real drivers" judge me.
Don't care: Track Day!
I took the Advanced Road Racing course at Driveway Austin today so now I'm able to drive all three track setups. Obviously the big track is the ticket. I replaced the stock pads with EBC Yellowstuff - I'll be swapping to Carbotech XP10 before I drive the long track again. Yellowstuff pads were a bit better than OEM, but not good enough for multiple 100-40 brake zones stacking up. I also am not a huge fan of the Nitto 555G2 tires. Even though I went from a 245/275 setup to a 285/305 setup I don't see noticeable increase in grip. In fact, I was putting down the same lateral G's on the stock Eagle F1 Runflats before the new wheels.
Still. Track Day!
I've got plenty of room to improve and now I have the ability to go drive any of their tracks for practice!
