Most sanctioning bodies and HPDE hosts require center cap being removed. They can become a hazard for other drivers. They will most likely fall out, never to be seen again, anyway. ?
No. It just felt solid. I thought it was normal, but I was so busy thinking "WTF now I'm gonna go off".. so maybe the pedal was harder than I'm remembering. LOL. The car slowed but just barely. When I got back on the brakes after, they were fine.
I had no air when I bled. No air allowed into...
Hard braking from about 115mph to a tight left hander. Very hard, probably almost to the point where ABS would have kicked in. Or, maybe it did and this is what happened.
Sounds right. Wouldn't be pad fade because letting off and reapplying the brakes doesn't cool them down enough to make a difference.
I recently started left foot braking so wonder if it has something to do with my time going from full throttle to full brake. Maybe I need to slow it down a bit...
I have a car that gets a ton of attention. It's hard taking it out. I can imagine how you feel. ?
I like letting people take pictures and sit in it, but sometimes I just want to enjoy my day/night.
I guess if the clutch still works correctly, then I can kinda see how it would speed things up. I've never pushed a clutch pedal more than needed to disengage before.. definitely not to the floor. So this is a clutch PEDAL stop. When most of us hear "clutch stop" we think of a part that usually...
That's not usually how a clutch stop works, so still trying to figure out how it helps. I realize these cars have some whacky, German engineering, so maybe there is something I'm missing.
It shouldn't have any effect on your clutch pedal, nor how fast you can shift.
Getting rid of the CDV is...
It's okay, but I don't wear it so it has to go. This one is my fave. I wear it on special occasion. I have my "daily" that's also a quartz. I like those vs automatics because I'm not afraid if it gets bumped around a bit ?
Hawk DTC60. I was nowhere near their limit, I've been using them all season.
Range is 400℉-1600℉.
This was 100% not a pad issue. The next stop was normal. I only had it happen twice, all day. No open recalls for my car.
I paid $1999 plus tax. It's Quartz movement, that's why. I do have a nice auto/ceramic Tag with Calibre 16 (automatic) movement that I'm looking to get rid of. ?
The brake pedal feels normalish. Maybe a little stiff. No vibration from ABS or anything, just like the calipers are locked out or something.
I bought the car with 1900 mi on it so I'm thinking no recall.
It's doing this almost once per lap. Cost me a pretty serious off into the dirt That may...
Didn't someone in the plethora of posts say that they're at the racetrack and their brakes intermittently weren't working?
I'm driving along and everything is fine but on some of the turns I just seen to have no brakes. The pedal feels fine, I'm just not slowing like usual. Very little power...
There are some really long posts in this thread. If it hasn't been said yet: customer service is a thing of the past. Customers, these days, have to fight for the honor of doing business with salespeople. Thanks covid.
