Cool OK, maybe its me...

I spent 3 hours last weekend installing brake ducts on my '18 Camaro.
- My arms now look as though i've been attacked by a dog.

So it's possible, JUST MAYBE... that I'm not driving correctly on the road course.

My fellow track rats have mentioned that i "square off" corners. It never hit me until i installed brake ducting on my 3rd vehicle.

Perhaps I should round those corners more and carry more speed!! (duh?)
- My lap times are pretty cool, but my brakes are pretty hot.
--------------------------------------------------------

My solution was to buy TI backing plates as well as ducting and add those next time i'm on the road course.

I shall return with results once it's traction season again.

Here's to cooler temps and shorter laps
