Weak sauce. Vacation days are for racing and sick days are for vacation. Noob

pretty fast from what I recall. you going with carbos? IMO I would do your first day on those RB800 (assuming they're somewhat track worthy pads with over half their usuable life left) just to get a baseline. chances are you won't be able to out drive them on only one day even if you are like Chau. IF you feel they aren't biting hard enough or whatever then switch it up. Fluid is really the most important thing, as long as that is fresh you will be good to go.

Pretty much what I said before too, Tim. You're not going to out drive those pads on your first day. As long as they have plenty of life, you'll be fine. Others have tracked on those pads and they've been ok, I don't see it being a problem.

I am changing fluid this week with amsoil. The pads still have good life left in them. I figured it would be better to run the carbos. But im a nube. I called saferacer and they said most likely Monday or Tuesday until I get them. I guess ill hold off and get them over the winter when I re-do the suspension.
