The car prep is important…..Dot 4 brake fluid, and if you can get an oil cooler in place before you go that would really help. I typically got up to 260 deg F and I was only running D class at the time.
Yeah, hydration is big on the bikes so I will have plenty of that. I'm running Bridgestone Potenzas now and will be adjusting tire pressure through the weekend to see how they works best.
I installed a Stillen oil cooler about 2 weeks ago in prep for the track so hopefully I don't blow the Z up. Definitely good info here, Thank you.
