I've been running it on my 2022 on stock calipers, and the CP has survived Autoclub Speedway, and quite a few of the NorCal Veterans with the 22 are also using the CP successfully. As always, if on a stickier tire (A052, RT660, r-compounds, slicks), the user will want to be on a race pad, as the CP's friction is better matched to true street tires and low-grip track tires. It'll still work with the stickier tires, but the long pedal won't make for the best heel-toeing. |

Hmmm. OK, maybe I don't understand what "capacity" means. I think of that as a pad's ability to tolerate high heat without significantly affecting performance. Is that correct? If so, you're saying the CSG street compound is a better, more stable compound at extreme temperatures than a DTC-80?
I feel like I'm missing something here. That sounds too good to be true. I know you love the CSG pads, but there is a reason experienced drivers choose to run two different compounds when driving their street car on the track. I must be missing something.

The friction is designed to pair with a street tire, so you need to get much deeper into the pedal than with a race pad that has race friction response. |

Ahhh...okay thank you. So the coefficient of friction is stable across a wide temperature range. It just takes more pedal pressure. That sounds similar to a DS2500. Am I barking up the right tree?

To put it in perspective, I've been running the CP on my Turbo BRZ and not having fade issues. I do have to get a bit deeper into the pedal, and the CP isn't a great match when I'm running race compounds, but with SX2 or RS4, it's just-right. The CP is for the user who runs street tires, street drives their car, but want's the capacity to do an occasional track day here and there without having to commit to race pads. Anyone tracking regularly really should be using race pads for optimal pad life/dollar. |

I was actually considering one of those. Is the DL's capability to read from the ECU actually that helpful over the normal Solo 2?

It gives you nearly as much data as a pro car, for less than 5% of a pro setup price. |

Solo2 non-DL is more or less a GPS lap timer, while the DL version is a GPS lap timer as well as a data logger and data output screen (if you'd like, plenty of configurations). Personally, I got a used Solo DL off of ebay for less than 50% the cost of a new Solo2 DL.

The Solo DL has 16mb, vs the 4gb of a Solo 2 DL. (guy who owns 4 Solo DLs) |
