  1. Clutch is scratchy after track day

    Thanks. I’ll give it a little time. 1. Heel toe downshifting 2. No diff cooler 3. I haven’t checked the diff yet but I did order thicker 75W-140 diff oil to install (awaiting arrival).
  2. Clutch is scratchy after track day

    Yes factory clutch. 13K miles. Any tips for diagnosing whether it needs replacement? Which aftermarket clutch did you buy?
  3. Clutch is scratchy after track day

    2016 GT Perf Pack. I just drove it for the first time after an HPDE day two weeks ago, and the clutch feels a little funny. It still seems to function properly but the motion is no longer butter smooth. I can feel it catching a bit near the top of the travel when a gear is engaging. There’s a...
  4. Brake pad questions

    Thanks. Thus far I have driven with the car in track mode, which reduces (but does not completely eliminate) stability control nannies. I believe there is a button trick to disable it completely but I have no plans to do so. I have not noticed accelerated wear on my rear pads, though I don't...
  5. Brake pad questions

    I’ve decided to go with R10/R8 as my next pads. How important are the titanium shims at this point in my journey? If I don’t get them now, should I reuse the factory steel shims or install the pads bare?
  6. What’s going on with my exhaust?

    No never anything like that. I’ve owned the car since 2018 / 4K miles.
  7. What’s going on with my exhaust?

    2016 GT with 13K miles. MBRP cat back. The insides of my tailpipes had a brown/rusty residue after a track day. See picture below. It wipes off easily with a wet towel. Is it a non-issue or something to be concerned about?
  8. Brake pad questions

    Even if 80% of the street car’s drive time is spent driving to and on the track? How are the R12/R10 unhappy on the street? Just noisy or are there other detrimental effects?
  9. Brake pad questions

    2016 GT performance pack used for HPDE and occasional street driving (500-1000 miles per year). Intermediate skill level. 200TW tires. Brembo DOT4 fluid. Stock pads lose a little bite near the end of my sessions. 1. At what thickness do you replace the pads? 2. Would G-Loc R10, R12, or R16...
  10. Heel-toe struggles

    Great feedback. Thank you.
  11. Heel-toe struggles

    Yeah I liked the track a lot and will be back. Maybe at the Sept BFR day. Is this the one you have? It looks like a clever way to harness in without major modifications...
  12. Heel-toe struggles

    Thanks. Are you referring to all my adjusting or to something else? It was a very hot, very sweaty day.
  13. Heel-toe struggles

    I finally got back onto the track yesterday after moving my Steeda pedal a little farther from the brake pedal. By the end of the day my heel-toe downshifts were getting pretty darn smooth. Thanks again for all the advice in this thread.
  14. S550 Alignment frustration

    It looks like the J&M aluminum dowels are $40 and the Steeda delrin dowels are $80. Any important reason to choose one or the other?
  15. Heel-toe struggles

    Thank you. I wouldn't say I'm having trouble with the process or timing. The reason I started this thread is regarding the foot/pedal placement challenge in this particular car. But I am soaking in a lot of the advice from these posts, which I really appreciate. @honeybadger at 1:20 in the...
  16. Rev limiter hit with Wengerd tune question.

    What kind of mods are required to support a 7900 redline?
  17. Heel-toe struggles

    Thanks. I tried washers before the pedal first and didn't like the feel. The gas pedal was in the way when trying to brake normally, but I suppose maybe I'd get used to the change. Good call on trying different left/right placement of the Steeda pedal. I will give that a shot. I'm using casual...
  18. Heel-toe struggles

    Definitely something to consider if it continues to be a problem. Which module did you buy and do you recommend it?
  19. Heel-toe struggles

    I might have to just do this as well. You must have a very controlled clutch motion in order for it to work smoothly.
