Subject: Re: $95 Sept 17th track day at Streets of Willow in California by bogus on 2010/9/18 5:34:25 I got back from Willow Springs a little while back. Had to eat something first! Extreem Speed does a very professional job! Excellent safety protocals (helmets, limited passing zones), a lot of track time and instructors who will ride with you! Thanks, Joel, for a great afternoon! I did get there late, but was able to get about 5 laps in on the track. My 92 did just fine, but I will say, your brakes had better be up to snuff and be prepared to take a few miles off the ole tires! It was really cool to blast down the front straight at some 85mph and slam on the brakes for a hard left at 30mph!! It took about 3 laps, and the brakes started to stink up the joint... but they never faded! I have Hawk HPS pads with the old Valvoline Synpower fluid. I need to flush again, but the pedal always stayed up. I ran with the ASR on, but never engaged it. So I guess I wasn't pushing hard enough! Then again, it is my daily driver. Most of the cars were Honda S2000s. There were a few Nissan Z cars and a Porsche 911 or 2, plus a couple of Vettes. I will post a few pics tomorrow. Again, GREAT TIME!!!! They are still preparing their scheduled for next season... stay tuned!! If you are in the area, this is one great activity!!! |
