Hi Les,
I guess I didn't realize those SA2005 helmets would only be acceptable until 2015 . . . Opps! They won't be shipping to me until tomorrow so I'll look at upgrading them to SA2010 rated helmets . . .
I have recently installed new high performance brake pads with dimpled and slotted rotors (from BrakePerformance.com) on both of these SRT6 roadsters. While I understand and appreciate the Motul 660 brake fluid change recommendation, I'm sure we won't be running aggressively enough in five 25 minute sessions to boil the Pentosin Super DOT 4 fluid that I also just recently flushed into both of these SRT6s . . . This event is not a true competition and we'll be running somewhat limited by the course officials so we just won't be driving and braking quite that aggressively . . .
