Stealthy what do you have on there for brakes? I think this is the first cobalt I've seen there?

I am sure I will have a blast. Just need to make sure I bring enough corn wtih me.
It is going to have brand new stock rotors with HP+ pads. What I am really hoping for is my new Griffin heat exchanger to make here in time. It is designed just like the ones that were on the Time Attack and Koni Chanllenge racing Cobalts.
We are considering extending the discount to BCM'rs
If anyone's interested, PM me here.
Thanks, Pat~

I'll be running my Mazdaspeed3 again with a fresh set of HP+ pads up front.
They might sound like a bus on the street, but they've worked great for me at RA in the past.
You guys are bedding these hawk pads in correct???? Mine rarely squeeked and only when cold out. You have to bed in hp+ or higher for numerous reasons.

Yes . . . .
Long story short, I've given up trying to to make the HP+ be quiet on my car. They're quiet when being abused, and on track perform great, so that's what I use them for. I'll be swapping them back for HPS on the street since my stock pads look like they've seen enough use.
Wait come to think of it the HP+ pads I had on my S10 squeeked alot. But I only drove in with them while I was only leave in Oct 2006. We'll see how these blue's sound. Probably going to install them tomorrow and keep them on until RA.

I am super fucking pumped for tomorrow!!!!! Bed-in the new brakes today and they brake really hard with little effort. Also put in a stock heat range plugs and the car feels much much stronger. Does anyone know of any E85 stations up by the track? I am bringing 10 gallons of summer blend with me but I might need to top off to get home.
Just want to say thanks to SSMike and Turtle for helping me out on the track yesterday. I had an absolute blast on my first track day and will be back to track the car in the spring. The car did come back with some damage but it was from shooting out fireballs!
Had a good time at Road America, despite the rain for the first half of the day! Having a great instructor for all four sessions helped a bunch. Car ran great. These guys put on a great event.

Had a great time although the rain really put a damper on things For most of the day I never even put the petal to the floor. I would even try sometimes coming up the front straight and traveling over 100mph I would step on it in 4th and the tires would ignite and rear end would start to rotate. Fucking AWD bastards have it so easy.
At least at the end of the day on Saturday it was starting to clear up a bit and I was able to push it a little harder. My phone says I was 40 seconds faster from the start of the day to the end so clearly although it was still pretty wet out there it was definitely much better at the end.
Overall had a blast though even with the weather, and would definitely like to thank everyone who put the event on. I got a TON of track time with the combination of A+B groups, and as always the communication throughout the event was very good.
I'll be out there for the Spring 2011 event for sure!
I ran the last B session and the open session. This swas after the rain stopped. I'd say the first 3 laps were hairy as shit with the track still wet. By the last 3 the track was getting MUCH better, dry line was great.
The last open session you could easily stay in the dry line. Was a blast overall. I loved it when the track was a little wet with loose spots.

You talking about saturday or sunday?
FWIW I did the last open session on Saturday (until I almost ran out of gas lol) and while it was better than it was earlier in the day I still had the best luck on the wet line except for a few turns like 1 and 13 and 7 to some extent. It was just too slick on the dry line for me everywhere else.
