For Formula One fans.
I and 360Lemans both took out Z06s to Hockenheim ring. Usually they have a short road circuit open for the Thursday afternoon runs. It’s a 3 dollar entry fee and then 12 dollars for 20 minutes of track time! Well, this past Thursday was right after the F1 race and the track was still in its F1 configuration!!! WOW fast track, had some brake fade, but otherwise it was real cool :)

That sounds extremely cool. Regarding the brake fade, were you using stock brake fluid or something else?
Brake fade is what you get why'll stomping on the brakes from 145 +MPH why'll entering a 180 degree turn. Now I see why they usually only have half of the Formula one track open, I almost used a new set of pads up in just under 1 hour!!!
