I had my friend tape my bed in procedure last night with my Hawk DTC-70 race pads in preparation for our track day this Saturday at Streets of Willow Springs. Since race pads only work at higher temperatures, it means putting a lot of heat in the system to get them bed in. this means about 10-15 stops from 60-10 followed by 3-5 stops from 80-10. Theres a lot of energy being absorbed by the brakes so I knew the rotors would be glowing by the end of the runs. Unforutnately my camera isnt the best in low light so it doenst show up as well as Id hoped, but you can clearly see them lighting up. Apparently in person it was much brighter. Ill be doing another set of stops later in the week so I might have another better video after that.

Right click and chhose "Save Target As"

dang, thats so cool! pretty stable video and i like the slow motions! hahaha wut the hell were skunks doing there?

 

hothothot.... I could see it better in the first clip.

 

They were just a little warm.

 

Heres a pic:



Thats probably about 1200-1400 degrees F at that point.

As far as the skunks, I have no idea. That was the last thing I expected to see in an industrial area like that.

 

i wish i had enough money for a bbk. looks cool as hell though.
