Happy Laps - Queensland Raceway 20-07-14

I have a very bad habit of warping or hotspotting discs in all my previous cars, and want to nip this in the budd before I start doing any damage.

change to better than factory pads and brake fluid for your driving application, replace factory discs with better ones also help.

FYP

Lol

What was so funny? My saying the Evo had fulleh hektic stretch?

There was quite a few gold quotes in there really. I've forgotten them all now though . But yeah mainly this:

I thought the general "I turn happy laps into angry laps" vibe was the funny bit...

Buy me an external mic then.

No.

Like, 'is that an old evo or just a dirty f**king lancer'?

Then you have to put up with my engine noise.

Speaking of brakes - I know this is probably the wrong place to ask, but the right place for the people I'd respect the answer from most - what should I put on a V36 350GT?

Depends on which calipers you're running. If it's the basic ones, scrap them and replace with either Akebono or R34 bits. Akebonos are about $2k though.

Also take a look at what rotors and pads you're running. The right mix will help but if the size isn't right, you'll still get heaps of brake fade. I am the master of brake fade!

RDA slotted and dimpled combined with QFM or EBC pads should give you a good go.

I gotta admit... jibberish... all jibberish!

I have much to learn. Maybe one day I'll be able to afford to have a dedicated track day car to put my money into - and maybe then I'll understand what "RDA slotted and dimpled" means without automatically picturing some exotic condom style.

[Cadmoon]

RDA is a brand.

Slotted and dimpled is a style of finish.

[Simink]

lol, thanks mate. Never heard of RDA. V35 suit V36? I can only find up to V35 discs.

my mate took the photos and gave me links to them, so I just posted them up as is... I don't know much about photos/compression but it sounds like you need faster internet?

should you post more dirty Evos in the future just save them on your desktop resize the pix like 1/3 and then post them up (I use photobucket or my mobile to post all my sexy photos)

Flickr should offer compression by changing the "_o.jpg" to "_z.jpg", or other letters. None of them work.

I blame your friend for not allowing Flickr to auto-compress linked photos.

Either that or he's shared his view address, not the public address.
