you DON'T get 20 laps for $40

more like 10 laps on the big circuit

stock protege brakes blow on the track, overheats and dies right after one lap

actually the stock brakes on the pr5 aren't too bad at summit point on the main circuit even in turn 1 where i'm going 115mph when i hit the binders

its only people who do not know how to brake when racing (you want a short intense burst of braking not a long drag on the brakes as those heat them up quite badly)...i've been racing hondas and mazdas on eom pads and rotors for 3 years now at summit and have had little problems with rotor warpage or fade on stock binders

your most likely culprit for the soft pedal is a consequence of the stock brake fluid overheating and getting air in the system...just by getting atx super blue is one of the best brake upgrades you can get

ANYONE going to hyperfest? i will be there just for spectating (got lots of honda challenge friends racing this weekend)
