Garage List
Road America corner 1, 5, and 12 all have an entry speed of 120 to 135 depending on traffic and of course entry onto the leading straight. No brake issues with stock pads any time during 9 30 minute runs with an average temp of 85 degrees and sunny. ATE Blue, F30 backing plates, and stock pads. Also had 3 hours at Grattan and 5000 street miles on the same pads. Still have 50% pad left. I'm impressed with the wear on the stock pads. Not as powerful as track pads but they will hold up. So back to the original post and recommendation. No mods other than maybe some ate blue or rbf 600 fluid. Learn the car, learn the track, and have fun. Road Atlanta is a top tier track and great fun especially with all the blind corners. Enjoy.
