O'Fest Mid-Ohio - Brakes

Anyone going to Mid Ohio for O'fest next month?

Wondering if I should step up to Hawk DTC 60s all around or stick with my Ferodo front (with titanium shims) stock back set up that I used at Grattan Raceway over the weekend. I am doing three days at Mid-Ohio.

I thought the Ferodos were way better and lasted longer than Cool Carbons. Everything I've seen on the forums makes me think I should make the switch to the DTC 60s (plan to use on track only, then switch back to all stock set up, including front rotors for the rest of the year(I currently have performance rotors in the front) as this is my last track event of the season). Please share your wisdom.........

I'll be there also for the tenth time. I Agree with the statement above.

Thanks Wolfpack. BTW your post back in June of 2010 about gingerman raceway and subsequent answers to my pms is what got me into this whole mess. Thanks again! Were you at Grattan last weekend?

YEP! I was there and had a blast. Brought the old standby 330 in lieu of the 1M. That was my first time at Grattan but not the last as long as we go back again.
Glad you are still in the "mess"!
