PCD: 2013-2014 Till We Break It Edition
I would get those rotors cleaned up.. It's def from uneven pad transfer or deposits. I would try being harder on them, that's worked for me in the past (to clean up shudder).
I didn't hear the grind, but in my experience that ish don't go away. Once it starts, the synchro is done. What fluid u using?

trans is on amsoil changed within the last 500 miles. im thinking the clutch is just done being at 60k miles...previous owner could have launched it or something.
im nervous to screw the rod in any more, its very far in. you're running a comp clutch aren't you? id love to get the carbonetic pro blade and push conversion...but after reading the praises lucas english gave the comp unsprung stage 2, maybe i should just do that. can buy it/have it installed for less than the cost of the carbonetic.
Nate, congrats on the win. I assume this was LRP. Jordan and his pops own that track from that I've heard. Too bad about his motor.
I've had really bad deposits twice before. Both times it was because I wasn't getting enough heat in the pads (braking in the rain) and both times it was with carbotech rotors. the only thing that fixed them was getting the rotors taken down a few 1000th.

you mean out? you want to extend the rod to get more pedal travel. You want to rotate the rod clockwise.

im starting to wonder if i created the deposits at CTD, since i ran the dtc's then too.
and yeah i meant screw the rod into the firewall.
Jeff ran a 1:02.xx while blowing up. hes nuts, he was in a group with race prepped/aero'd corvettes....and passing them 3 at a time down the front stretch. luckily EFI logics was there with a race sti, and helped check out and find the problem so he didn't go back out.
I hear LRP is fun, and it is a track on my 'to-do' list, but its mad far from me. Once I've done all the other tracks within a decent driving distance I'll do LRP... with all these new tracks opening in the next few years that might be a while.

I was pissed they split the run groups, 3 in am, 3 in pm and let it be known. I hate when they do that ish, such a waste of time IMO. So I only did 3 runs and left. Pretty sure I left a decent amount of time out on course. Still finished 17 in PAX, and 12 in raw time.
Congrats to Aaron on another PAX nguyen!
Sorry I didn't get to say goodbye, the kid carts were getting ready to run and I didn't want to get stuck. What time did you guys finish up?
