Quote: Nate, if you on street tires, there's no way in hell you need more than dtc60. Adjust your braking son.
i said going to a track pad in the rear not change the front.

Quote: WAT?

That TT3 record in not a good representation at all. When TT3 is the slowest time of all (even slower than TTD), you know something is out of whack. It should be a 14.x, basically what Joe was running in U. Only reason Joe was not in TT3 was because he was going for tires, but the TTU record was set be a TT3 car.

and you should not be fading DTC60's. Its your braking technique that's flawed, not the pads.
i know it was a joke, in the scheme of things im still slow but foe me the 1:26 felt damn good when i drove it and i think something clicked mentally. let me have my moment!

im not convinced it was fade, but something happened that didn't feel right since ive never triggered abs on this car, im usually pretty good about feeling it right on the edge, but i braked earlier than normal and it just didnt feel like it was gonna slow down, so i pushed harder, it started chirping the tires and let it go straight off.

BTW, I usually run pads to about 1mm from the backing plate.

if you've never triggered ABS then how do you know you're on the edge of it?

Also got to ride in a car with R7's. Those things grip for days. My car was screaming around turns; the e46 with R7's didn't make a peep. UDT maybe?

well in all honesty i assumed it would feel like it does in other cars ive felt it in aka through the pedal. i have never felt an abs kick back in the pedal of the evo, however when i had my issue saturday when i jammed on the brakes harder after realizing i was never gonna make turn in i heard intermittent tire lock up which i would guess was abs taking over, but i felt nothing in the pedal.

oh and btw, here ya go jordan.

2 Tim's in a room might be too much. When I am official I will seriously inquire.

Is PG going? Anyone else I know?
