@loki were you still rocking the Stoptech pads?
"A car is just fast enough when you stand in front of it in the morning and are afraid to unlock it" -Walter Rohrl
2nd session of the day got the pads to smoke pretty good and experienced brake fade
Adjusted my driving style and didn't have any other issues with brake fade the rest of the day. Using Castrol React SRF Racing brake fluid.
Considering picking up Hawk HP+ pads though
^Brake fade was due to the fluid more than the pads right?
I switched from Stoptech to Hawk HP+, I feel like I lost a lot of braking power.
My take on Cayuga is that it's more beginner friendly and probably better for someone that just wants to have some fun but not hardcore into tracking.
You'll get to reach higher speeds while still feeling "safe". It also feel less enclosed compared to DDT.
DDT on the other hand will give you more thrills and scares but will make you better faster. On DDT I'm only using 2nd and 3rd.

one thing I've noticed is that the wide view setting on the GoPro really makes the cars ahead of you seem a lot further etc.
so legit.

This past weekend at CSCS. There's more time left that's for sure.
I managed to go faster than 3 Speed3's that were there. If you guys are on here, feel free to ask for any tips! Honestly, everyone learns every single time they go out there, do not be afraid to ask! Come up to me at the track when I'm in the pits, I don't bite.

For reference...back in 2009 when the MS3's were running, including myself, the competitive times we were running were between 1.21 to 1.25 per lap...
Anyway...here's Fubawu...in a 215hp Civic doing 1.20...a time we should all aspire to...

who ran better than a 1:22.6 in a speed aside from john? best ive seen is usually around 1:23.5, even way back when. records are in ota, sigma and cscs still.

zoran was just being friendly, and spoke truth. no need to make it whos faster than who, thats not what this thread is about, about helping those who want to improve their driving.

beat all the speeds

what begs the question is why you bring up a speed reference from 2009? i dont understand you.
im tired of the speed owner bs that comes from some of the guys.

no, the reason is, zoran was able to drive alot better than a few speed owners. thats great and good on him. huge respect. and so what, mazdas are mazdas and i wish and still hope that a speed will take the track record in ota and cscs. but ur first reply in this thread is to say indirectly that he didnt do well because the competitive speed times were lower in previous years, who gives a fak. im happy you posted up that vid, its a great addition to making others faster, but it doesnt mean the bs you laid in there before can fly. thats what gets me, and its coming from a professional tuner/driver like yourself. cmon
but no, you couldnt just say good job, btw heres a vid to help you go faster.
