What should I know about the 135 to track it, in particular at Laguna? Anything to watch out for (limp mode, oil temps, engine temp, oil consumption, severe understeer, brake fade...)? I'm thinking of getting some track pads along with an oil change, transmission/differential fluid change, and brake fluid flush.
I saw a sticky thread about 135 caliper damage from overheating. Unfortunately, I know LS to be very hard on brakes and I've been in the gravel twice from brake fade down at Turn 2 and at the corkscrew, so it makes me nervous.
Also -- does anyone have any suggestions for setting up a mic with an original GoPro Hero, if it's even possible? I hate the wind noise. Or perhaps I should figure out how to mount my DSLR inside with an external mic wired up somewhere under the glove box?

Which event at Laguna? I'll be there on 3/26 with a HOD partner event and 3/30 with CFRA.
