Car recover parts

PostHeaderIcon Nov7-8 – Summit Point Main – NASA

This is the following weekend after my great time at Summit Main.

Kyle and I are in the same group- Blue- he has Eric Wong. Seems that the challenge is on even before it starts. We don’t line up together and don’t see each other on the track. We review our data after the first day and realize that we were consistently on the opposite side of the track the entire time (going close to the same speed). This is good news- must mean that I am doing ok if he hasn’t caught up.

This event is much more crowded and I am frustrated by being stuck behind other cars. I know that I should use this time for learning other stuff but still want to maximize my own speed and skills

Day 2- Brian keeps telling more and more that I need to work on my posture-stop invading his space as I am sliding and leaning too much around the turns. I make a conscious note but it is very hard to control this with my maximum speed (ha!). But true!

Kyle gets solo’d…takes off for the last round- waiting for Brian….I’m not going to be happy about this if he doesn’t give me the option, and then…finally!! I get to go solo too! I finish the weekend finally feeling like I accomplished something that I set out for! I am very comfortable on this track-feel great at pushing my car and working the slide around turns (the butt dance as I call it) as necessary and going full throttle(for me) everywhere that I can!

Overall, I liked the nature of the event, but would prefer not to be in a group this crowded again at a different speed.

I am looking forward to next season on Main! “

Looked at my pads after the PCA event, thought I was going to have enough pad for this weekend (3 days), but the brake pad wear sensor came on during the last lap of my session on Friday, the rear pads were done. A quick call to OGRacing and I was able to get Brian Hair (Mary’s instructor who works at OGRacing) to bring a set of PFC01’s with him on Saturday morning.

What are the best brake pads I should purchase?

im planning to buy new brake pads for my mitsubishi lancer, which is a moderate sedan. i want to keep the factory rotors and calipers, so i was wondering what brake pads would be best to use for a daily driver not going on the track what so ever. semi metallic, organic, or ceramic? thanks.


Take it from a technician that uses cheap junk yard parts on his vehicle. Any decent brake pad will stop your vehicle but the number one concern after brake jobs is noise. Noise is typically caused by vibration. I always suggest using factory brake pads from the dealer. As for semi metallic, organic or ceramic.....your dealer will have the right pads for your vehicle.

Car brake particles harm lung cells

BERN, Switzerland, Nov. 23 (UPI) -- Particles released by car brake pads during a heavy stop can harm lung cells in vitro, researchers in Switzerland said.

Barbara Rothen-Rutishauser and Peter Gehr of the University of Bern, Switzerland, and Michael Riediker of the Institute for Work and Health in Lausanne, Switzerland, worked with a team of researchers to study the effects of brake particles on cultured lung cells placed in a chamber close to the axle of a car.

"Brake wear contributes up to 20 percent of total traffic emissions, but the health effects of brake particles remain largely unstudied. We've found that the metals in brake wear particles can damage junctions between cells by a mechanism involving oxidative stress," the researchers said in a statement.

The analysis revealed that brake wear particles contain considerable amounts of iron, copper and organic carbon. Exposure to these pollutants caused increased signs of oxidative stress and inflammation in the cells and hard braking caused most exposure, the researchers said.
