I took the car to Sebring yesterday for the first time. From previous experience, I knew that the track is really hard on brakes, so I purchased z32 brakes.... thanks to Matt for the rotors and thanks to Taylor for the calipers and installation.
...so I get to the track yesterday moring and set-up in pit row. I run a few laps with a master instructor and get his sign-off. I start running hot laps and after lap 8 I notice the pedal is getting long. I pull into the pits and bleed the brakes with my new Japanese friend Shingo, he is here learning engrish. I go out and run some more laps and realize that the pedal is super long and I am going about 105 as I approach the braking zone for the safety pin.... luckly I was able to slow the car down and get back to the pits and park it. I managed to run some more laps before calling it a day.
Overall the car is a monster at Sebring. The car has too much power for the current status of the chassis. I need to stiffen the chassis, get bucket seats as Shingo calls them, upgrade the brake pads, and add some ducts for the front brakes.
There is a chin event on April 4th at Sebring. It's on the short course so speeds don't generally reach more than 100-110 mph.
