Javy, the F-Sport brakes were excellent. Drivers thrashed the cars all day long and I experienced no brake fade in my session (3:30pm). They bit hard and stopped well. I'm not sure how much they are but I can imagine they are pretty expensive, and I think the sewell GB price on the actual IS-F brembos would be a better deal. The F-sport are stoptech I think?

F-Sport brakes were better than stock, but I didn't get up to any significant speed to require serious braking power so I can't really say if they are 'worth' the price.

Dave,

You managed to get a lot of great pics. It was great that your wife was obtaining great angles and of course, our pic sitting on the IS-F (LOL). I referred some members to your PM for advice on the 4.5 hour paid event.

I too was very impressed with no brake fade on the F-Sport rotors and calipers. I was very hard on them at the end of the Sport Cross. On my third lap, I hit them very hard doing at least 50mph and had the ABS chirp the front tires quickly twice. If only the set-up was cheaper, I would upgrade. The springs are a must as well.

Hey Brian,

My wife enjoyed taking the photos. She got a bunch of you on the track (car #14) but you can't really tell who's in the car.

I'll be happy to share any info on the paid event, it was worth it to me. I finally figured out the thing with the cones. I wish I could have had a few more runs

Thanks for the pics Dave! I was in the session before you but had a great time. Looking forward to many more of these. How was the event on Friday compared to Saturday? Was it more hands on or just more time allowed on the track?

Glad you had a good time also. Brian I think wet his pants he had such a good time!!! haha...

Thanks for sharing the great pics.

I was signed up for the free event on Sunday afternoon.

With the weather as bad as it was, I decided to bail out.

Did anyone from the forum go yesterday?

It was more of everything! At least double the track time, including a relay race, and only IS-F's. Basically it was 4 40-minute sessions. It was 4 laps of the cones thing, I think 8 laps in on the track and then a couple of laps on the relay.

Less people, so everything was less rushed as well. Food was better too, not to say that Saturday's food wasn't good.
