4000 miles round trip, 60 hours driving time, I am crazy but that's too much for a weekend trip I'd probably wear out the pads I just got from you driving there.

I am jealous regardless.

Install them at the track. It only takes 30 minutes.

If you make that trip, I'll personally pay for your track day at any FT86CUP event of your choice this year.

Very tempting Thank you.
What is Willow Springs hardest braking zone and what are the highest speeds achieved on that track in the FRS/BRZ?

roughly 100 to 60 (into T3) or roughly 90 to 60 downhill (into 5). Vmax will be low 120's.
