Great job but, I wonder what happened that required a new brake master cylinder to be installed after road course session. Looked like Dan had quite oa moment on the road course when they exited the building. Luckily for my stock C6 Z's brakes held up on 187mph run on trip home (no cops or burros in the remote desert.)
I have to hand it to Dan they thrashed that new master cylinder on pretty fast. Great job!

Never had a doubt Danny had it in the bag. He is a great driver and wrench!

Congrats to Danny and Todd! We had a hunch Danny might place well...

Thanks to Todd and Danny for running on Pfadt suspension too. Looks like you took care of business so thank you for representing for Pfadt!

From Facebook "Optima Batteries"
Danny Popp won the BFGoodrich Tires Hot Lap Challenge, with a best lap of 1:42.208

1:42 within 3 laps on that track, which are apparently his first 3 laps ever on that track.
