BRAKES: still working great! I need to switch to more aggressive pad once I move to sticky tires... just not enough bite in these... Also going to pursue the ducting, had some overheating today but of course it was up to 110f ambient so was to be expected

POWER/WEIGHT: today, I got absolutely dusted by a well sorted z06 - kept catching him in the twisties but he'd just pull away on straights... wasn't happy about that- I need more!... currently at 3,300 lbs with full fuel and driver... and currently at around 310whp... hoping to get another 20 whp and drop another 250 pounds then I think I'll have what I need

SUSPENSION: all is good! I'm very happy with the setup, just need lighter corners and stickier tires... I have no reservation recommending the BC Racing ER coils and Stillen sways

DRIVETRAIN: trannie got excessively hot today... during long sessions, it got harder and harder to get into gear... any comments on this guys? I'm thinking maybe I need a trans cooler... carbonetic diff was great for controlled oversteer

Oil temps never got about 255F !!! That's running hard in 110F ambient... My dual core setup really rocks! I really wish Redline would finish it up and offer to the public - I'll ask them again
