[QUOTE="yotah1, post: 52342, member: 599"] Back yesterday evening from the Nurburgring, met a couple of german guys running Twingos, they were quite shocked at how much faster than them I could go thanks to my different upgrades (and track knowledge also I guess) but it was fun almost all day. Quite many track closures, many many crashes with completely totalled cars! And sadly a biker killed himself almost in front of me, pretty hard scene to watch :( The car ran fine, a little brake fluid boiling after lunch but nothing bad. Brake pads are just perfect, but i need to learn again all my braking points as most of the time I had to re accelerate before the turns :D But they wear out very fast! I put them on 2 weeks ago, did 3 driving sessions on a track in France, 21 laps of the Nurburgring yesterday, 3 mm remaining on the front pads !! Only one problem during the week-end, my exhaust intermediate pipe go a bit loose, so I had to re-tighten the screws during the day, gotta get this modified asap. The R888 were almost perfect, didn´t wear out so much in 21 laps, but the cold temperature (16°C maximum) didn´t allow me to get them into good temperature so the grip was not maximum, so no new lap time. A few parts I realised I definitely need to install : - carbon door panels with leather straps to pull the doors - carbon foot rest for both driver and passenger (i got the car so messy on Saturday because of the rain, i don´t ever wanna have to clean it that much again!) - still waiting on suspensions...
