Well heck, i'm 1.5 seconds slower in the heat than i was last October. Although over the course of a 3.5 mile lap, that's not too bad.
I'm just happy the used brake pads i bought held up to a day's worth of track heat. Now to bed the Hawk DTC-60's and see how we go from there.
I'll take any driving tips... it's just me guessing out there! 
My hot lap
