Rich,

Glad you made it to the board and I want to thank you for an outstanding job. You just sounded like you were right at home, as if it were second nature to you. Kudos!

Poolman,

Thanks for the help with tech. I know Jeff really appreciated it too.

Tim,

I hope you don't mind me borrowing some of your pictures to put up on the SCMC website?

Thanks to all!

Nice video Tim. What brown car was he refering to?? Who was in the car with you? I want his name and #. J/K Glad you had a good time. Maybe in the fall we can have some shared track time.

I can't say who that was in the car with me, but he was a cobra driver. Just glad you guys know I wasn't saying those things!

He was just hillarious, that commentary is almost better than the video.

I am going to sign up for cmp with the mustang club weekend after next. If not there I will see you guys in the fall.

The brown car was the 03 parked next to me. He was talking a bit in the morning, it was all in good fun tho.

Tim,
I'm not gonna be driving at the Mustang weekend, but I'll probably come down and watch on that Sunday. Maybe get a ride with you if they'll allow it. I'll let you know if my schedule is good. I know Jason is gonna be there that weekend too. He had the black Cobra parked with Don and Shugg(directly in front of where we were parked). If I can make it, I'd appreciate it if you'd put me on your crew list to get me in.

I will do, just spent 400$ on new rotors and pads. Got better quailty pads, those cheap pads damaged the rotors.

see you there.

Tim

2KWhiteSnake · 03-18-2003, 03:00 PM

Actually Tim, I just talked to the wife. I think I'm gonna just go ahead and sign up for it. I need some more track time. I talked to Larry Kilgore and they have some C group spots open. Sad thing is, my wife said she would be interested in doing it, but she will be out of town that weekend through Saturday night. At least it's a step in the right direction. We'll just share the Cobra. Guess I'll have to get her in for CMP in the fall.

I'll let you know.

My wife's first car growing up was a stick, so at least she's got the hard part down.

She loved driving the Cobra when it had the stock shifter, but she hates the notchiness of the aftermarket one I have on there now.

I think it was the lack of any pad being on there.

What kind of pads did you get?

timz06 · 03-18-2003, 07:53 PM

there was still some pad left, i tore it down last night. One pad, the wear bar was hitting the rotor. Anyway, after I took the pads off, you could crumble parts off with your finger.

They were pads from autozone. I thought they would be fine, my other event was at roebling, but cmp was brutal on the brakes.

I ordered 2002 z06 pads which are track versions, and new rotors. My rotors aren;t that bad, front ones need to be turned, but I have heard that if you turn them, you may crack them. I will turn them, and keep them for spares. I am going to have spare rotors, and pads next time. I hate to miss out on track time because of a lack of preparedness.

johnbasf · 03-18-2003, 08:27 PM

Try and see if you can get some Hawk Blue pads.

johnbasf · 03-18-2003, 08:32 PM

or Carbotech Pads.

timz06 · 03-18-2003, 08:36 PM

Maybe I'll just stay off the brakes and carry some more speed through the turns!

1:53 was my best time, Ed got a 1:54 on his best lap in my car
