Hi, guys. Newbie here. I just acquired an '07 GTI and will be attending a few HPDE days. I'm no expert, but I'm no stranger to road courses, either. I've driven race cars on the track with race brake pads and of course I've driven street cars on the street with street pads.
I've never driven a car on the street with race pads, nor have I driven on a track with street pads.
How do you hotshoes deal with this? Do you change pads at the track? The night before? At the beginning of the season? What?
Or maybe you just hold back a little at the track to acccomodate street pads.
Has anybody tried to get a handle on brake temperatures via Tempilac or other method?
Thanks!
