How's the brake issues coming? I see you have a plan on attack.
Thanks for designing it to be so effective!!

I'm just going to replace the rotors, do the pedal dance, adjust my braking and hope for the best for now, unless I catch something wrong with the hardware but I doubt I will.

I'd like to make it down to Roebling again at some point this year. It's deceivingly fast.


Come out with Flat Out Motorsports in May! No students, no traffic and plenty of great people to hang out with.

Sounds like a good time! Students mean comped/discounted track time and more money for rotors/pads/E85 though. I might splurge if I can make the date.

86 Alanta mountain run through Wolf Pens Gap and epic kart racing at AMP yesterday.














Perfect day!

Wish I had my GoPro because the kart track is very fun and quite challenging.
For perspective:

They both look like a lot of fun. How well does your track driving experience transfer over to carts?

I was able to set a respectable 68.4 second lap time with some open track and no traffic. Low 67 second lap is the all time record for the rental karts.

I know, right? KitchenAid dishwashers are awesome!

Also, why are you washing your brake discs? Do they come with some sort of coating on them for shipment?

Congrats on the brake discs. I know you were waiting on them for a while.
