1:46 at Laguna buddy, that's with bad camber plates. And you don't know how to drive at Laguna if you are toasting your brake pads! :) As far as car prep goes, with your 10 more horses and coilovers,

Whoa! you've got to be kidding! braking after turn 1, going into turn 2, is a great way to shave some life off your pads... also, coming up over the crest and braking right before the corkscrew is a

Dang, that's pretty darn good. My best is only 2:01 in my Z, though that's with street tires (yeah, yeah! Street tires make up that 15 second difference =). -Carl

Please explain to me how to drive Laguna without being hard on the brakes. I ran on Friday in the 1:55 to 1:57 range with crappy tires, half boost and boiling brake fluid. I used engine braking as m

Try using Hawk Blues or something like that... they make a huge difference in the amount of braking that you can do. I literally crumbled the stock pads on the S2000 to nothing but backing plates an

Do you completely flush your fluid just before Friday? Also, what kind of fluid? I use Motul 600, and my Potorfield R4S pads will fry and start to crumble before the fluid gives up. -Carl Mandatory A

It could be the pads. My big, ol' 3500-pound 635 has done 1:50 with carbon-kevlar pads all around. 'Course there was the day last November that I toasted a set of stock pads faster than you can say

Did you green fade the pads, or just put them on and run them? You might have green faded them in that 2nd turn... CHD

Aaah, it sounded like you had just put them on, got two turns and lost brakes. Green fade is the gasses in the brake pads coming out during the first few heat cycles and getting between the pad and r

Sorry to break this to you, but R4Ss suck just a little less than your street pads on track. They are not made to withstand that kind of a heat. R4 (without the S) is a decent track pad, but not as g

As much as we hate to admit it, for most people on this list, our cars ARE toys. Some like to keep playing with their toys on the street. Some give that up for a more spirited and safer toy on track
