Driving around to all these events is starting to take effect on the front tires.

Oh yeah, brake cooling: I might have to bump up in class just to run the stillen brake coolers. My brakes were cooking today. There was smoke coming out after the runs, the fluid didn't look like it was boiling over but you can see the deposits on the rotors. I started to fan the brakes down with the rear mat support, it was the only MacGyver solution I could think off.

This was my fastest run, resulting in a 43.480, no cones, 1st in CS, 9th in PAX, RAW placing wasn't listed with the results.

That looked like a blast.
