Not even once...

Kinja'd!!!

They had 8mm yesterday afternoon.

In other news I was talking with one of the FR-S owners I have been tracking with and found out he owns a freaking 2000GT!

Kinja'd!!!

(not his, I didn't get to see his)

Apparently he used to be a regional sales manager for Toyota in the PNW, and claimed that he had owned just about every performance car produced by Toyota (which I knew included a Supra TT). I jokingly asked "So you have an LFA?" and he says "no, but I do have a 2000GT. It's a dual cam model without A/C"

I'm pretty sure all of our (we had a group of about 6 FR-S owners there) jaws hit the floor just then.

Also he bought it in the 70's for about $6K.

That's what you get for Ganny-Shifting and not double-clutching like you should.

I thought this was a blurry picture of your car after hitting a pole...

Meh not my brake pads, I went 5/6 sessions on a better pad with 4mm remaining at the start

So the Hawk HPS pads are junk? I am confused as to what I am looking at.

You are looking at a pad worn down to the backing plate

No it isn't. My friend burned through his HPS in about 3 sessions, meanwhile my Project Mu's lasted me all summer

It shows the huge difference between street and track pads.

Too true. Do these screech like banshees in every driving setting? That's the fate of the track pad.
