Another day, another new PB! First warm track day of the year, car felt MUCH better than the last time we had it out in the freezing/raining cold. With the help of @Dare2DreamMotorsports we finally dialed some more rear camber in for this outing and pulled some toe out of both the front and rear. Feels much more stable at speed again wiht the rear appearing to rotate better than ever.
Definitely have more work to do on pushing some braking zones, but the temps made me much more confident in diving alpha and T10 deeper. This Stoptech ST-60 and EBC SR21 combo still blows my mind. Caliper temps are ~360* and rotor temps are between 800-1000*. Rotors are barely worn with less than 0.1mm of wear and almost 70 laps on them already. Pads have at least 80% life left. Absolutely magical setup.
Still getting pretty hard fuel-cuts going into T6 and T9, but the anti-surge kit from my good friends over at @eqtuning showed up the day after the track. So I'm hoping these will soon be a thing of the past!
