I would contend that the units of measure for the brake system pressure doesn't matter much as it has too many other influencing components to be comparable between cars. Basically I'm contending that the g-force information provides a much better view of brake skill than the system pressure.

I'm really considering it. I've been there once and been wanting to go back. It's all gonna depend on the cost.

We will be around from 10 to 4 on Saturday with air for tires, torque wrench for wheels and possibly other help.

Well, I also need the vacation days...

Really what I am thinking of going to is the T-Hill West open track day on Sunday (I would only suggest this to people who could handle open passing btw.), but I've done six track days on my current oil and need to figure out which brake rotor is juddering. So yeah, next track day will probably MRLS with NCRC on Sept. 1st.

BTW, who else is going to that?

No worries. Prepping the car for Laguna Seca 9/11 with HOD. Anyone going to that?

Nope. GGLC @ T-Hill followed by Lemons stuff.


Speaking of which, is anyone doing the 9-1 @ MRLS w/NCRC?

What about the 9-5 day @T-Hill w/Hooked on driving?

Or the PCA event the next two days (6th & 7th)?

How about the 9-11-2014 @ T-Hill w/GGLC?

And also the big Lemons race (13th & 14th) and its open test day (12th)? Is anyone doing that?

And then later in the month there is the HoD event (27th and 28th)...

I will be very disappointed if I don't see some of you at those!
