Shaun you seem to be losing out on the corners big style. Are you sure you\'ve got your break set-up right? I could be wrong but you seem to be struggling to slow down so you put more into the pedal and then get too much breaking and lose the corner speed. Either that or you need to get to the gym and put some more muscles on them legs!!!!!!

Loosing the ABS has something in it. On Cascades (running down the hill) there is a heavy dip that if I brake late I\'ll run out of road ! I\'ve been in the passenger seat going into the gravel trap ! I probably brake early to make sure I actually stop as well !

I don\'t think the initial bite is high on the brakes, but putting more biting pads in just made me lock the wheels up. I possibly need more aggressive pads in the front to get more out of the brakes, but all it may do is lock the fronts up.

Maybe I need stronger legs ! Although I should let you try out my brakes and see what pressure I have to use to stop !

When I pulled my pads out at Lunch I did have a problem with the rears and the braking felt better in the afternoon with fresh pads.

Yeah sounds like your gonna have to play around with the pads until you find something that suits you and the car more. Then you\'ll have more confidence in it I guess.

Oh and I know how hard the brake pedal is, I\'ve seen you hobbleing after a day at the track!

Did very well though, I only ran out of leg on the last session of the day :Giggle

Car probably needs dropping a bit more as well, but the speed bumps round me may stop that !
