How's the brake fluid? Might be time to do a flush/bleed to make sure fluid is fresh. *NM* MarcW - Friday, 14 January, 2011, at 1:31:46 pm |

I had the brake fluid flushed fall of '09. I try to get it flushed every two year. Do you think it will be necessary to do it again before the April DE?
I am sure I am not pushing the car as hard as it could be so I was not real sure about how necessary track pads would be. The track is Carolina Motorsports Park which I understand is harder on brakes than most.
So I think the general consensus is to go with the textar for now. Is there any issue running the textars on the front and OEM on the back? Are the compounds close enough to the same?
Any idea how thick a fresh pad is so I can measure and see how close to the 50% I am?
