Were staying at the Holiday Inn Express WINchester tonight before our final push down south, saw a couple cars in the parking lot when we pulled in tonight around 10:30pm. Pic by Cayman...

Yeah, did it even happen? Man it's been quiet. Great day today though. Was planning on rendezvousing just to visit but it just wasn't in the cards today. Oh well, bummer.

Weather was great today too. A lot of people left early fearing rain, but the track was fairly dry in the afternoon. Wish more people had been out there.

But a great event overall. PCA Potomac is the best!

Last run on Sunday turned out to be great.

Finally sorted out my brake pads on that run - the friction difference between PF-08s and PF-01s front-to-rear is not enough to offset my front bias issue. Turns out the PF-08s are way more aggressive than the pagid yellows, a tidbit of info that is difficult to find out since PF does not publish any of their friction specs.

Had a good day yesterday, and decided to bring the car home. Ended up bagging today and worked on some things around the house to get ready for the storm.

I found that to be true too. I liked the aggressiveness but needed to get used to it. PF's supposedley can be used all the way down to the backing plate unlike the yellows but we shal see.
