So what is the usual brake-bleeding interim and what's involved?

its not PCA events, its VIR, and I wasnt saying its forbidden to own a car part business (whatever iteration) and to have your trailer there, I just know that CDOC is VERY VERY territorial at VIR and have made great pains to make their "exclusive rights" known to all. The guys I use do the same thing as Viperbob. I just dont want some stupid argument to break out. Thats all!

I cant wait for this event...but Im more excited to see what Ill be driving...haha...may be orange, may be white, or may be silver...

You should have your fluid changed to rbf600, get some lines and maybe hawk hp + pads. As far as bleeding, YOU should be fine for the whole event if you have those changed right before the event. You wont be pushing your car that hard in that run group, so dont worry about it TOO much (unless the pedal litterally falls to the floor and you...have no brakes...haha...then see my guys or Viperbob and youll be taken care of!)

Uh, OK... Breath man... I was just saying that other vendors show up and do the same thing... I'm sure Viperbob will be fine so long as he isn't broadcasting that he's selling parts... No argument, just what I've personally seen.

I also will be bringing a number of spares (Pagids, Rotors, etc) should anyone need them. Just a heads up that there will be some services available at the track. Just look for the Vortex Motorsport tractor trailer.. See you all there.
Bob and his crew are awesome guys and I can't tell you how many drivers he has bailed out at track events!!! Only reason I am going is that he is going with the rig and bringing track support!!!

Time is getting close!!!!!!

Dont get Viper Bobs offer confused with CDOC track support. Bob has offered to be a nice guy and one of us just to "help out" I have NEVER seen him charge for anything at the track. He helps me and others out just as any of us would help each other out as one of the guys. He is coming as a friend and driver. He is every bit as excited about driving there as we are, it just happens that he is a car guy. Hey someone busts an aneurysm at the track I will fix it in the garage for free also.
He is not coming as "vendor" just a friend, no conflicts of interest, so all is good!!!

haha, guys, Im chill, I just want to make sure that no one gets any crap from the CDOC guys. I saw some interesting stuff at a ferrari event and I didnt want anything to happen to any of the great guys here...



Like I said, I the guys I use aren't kosher in that regard either (well sort of...ok, the guy is Colin Dougherty's father...but anyway).

What tires is everyone running? I planned on MPSC, but if most people are running faster stuff I'll step my game up.

I'm bringing a bunch of MPSC back that I'm picking up from Mike, so I'll have to bring something better to drive on the car. Will they allow Non-DOT? I'm not too high on the R6 and dont want to buy a new tire to DE on. I'm running A6 in TT this year.
