Shouldn't have any trouble. Especially if there's 2 of you and you get there relatively early

If they let me into CnC theyll for sure let you in. I think the only reason my buddy and I did was the guy saw the Ontario plates.

Judging by your signature they might have possibly had some inclination to what was going on under the hood haha.

Yes pads and fluid is a must. Stock pads are known to fad on the road course. Plus I don't think they will let you on the course without dot 4 fluid.
