[QUOTE="03'Darin, post: 4860795, member: 6164"] When I read the storys about someone's excitement from their first track experience it always reminds me of mine. 15 years and LARGE PILES of money ago I still remember that day like yesterday. venomous01 be prepared..... it's an addiction that you'll never break. lol One great thing about it is you won't have money for bad habbits. lol As stanger58 said.... the driver mod is the biggest mod. As I'm sure you realize it's not that your instructors "more stock" Cobra was faster, it's just what a more experienced driver can do. Somebody may have already mentioned it but you should consider getting rid of those cross drilled rotors and going to a solid rotor. Slotted rotors are good but the cross drilled rotors are prone to premature cracking and failures. As your driving ability improves your parts wear will increase dramatically. You'll also want to go with a track specific pad that will handle more street than the HPS. Ideally you should use the cross drilled rotors and HPS pads for street use and keep the solid or slotted rotors and track pads for open tracking. You don't want to switch back and forth from track pads to street pads on the same rotors. Most pad material is not compatible and will cause your car to feel like the rotors are warped.
