PH @ Spa & the Ring
Discussion
Nick - carbon metallic sounds interesting, not familiar with them. My research & development experience in sprints & trackdays in my Ginetta(& also consensus on T350 forum) is Ferodo DS2500 if you also need them to work from cold - ie. on road. They have far higher heat resistance than std pads and less pedal pressure. In comparison the DS3000 in our experience needs so little pedal pressure that it's hard to use smoothly. Think the pads coincidentally are same as your Seat's! I'll be getting a set for mine soon.
Search T350 threads to confirm.

I, at least, get an error when clicking the Dettaglio link in the first message in the thread. I've found the info at:

I'd like to hear more about rentals available for the track day at Spa.
Cheers,

Hellllooooooo..... anyone else going?
Damn, guess I've got the track to myself then.....
I'll be in the Black Radical SR4. See you there! Taking the Porker down too. Should be wicked, raced there earlier in the year for the first time, the circuit is absolutley awsome.
Staying at the Radisson at Spa and the at Altes Forsthaus in Nurburg. Will have an SL65AMG, a 997 Carrera S, an M5 V10, a 350Z GT4, an Evo IX, an Exige, a Megane 225 Cup and a 530i with me. Sort me out a paxlap in yours and I'll generate a VBOX trace of your lap for you in return.

Apparently they sent stuff out electronically last Thursday and it appears to have all gone AWOL so they are sending it again today.
How many PH'ers going?

Got details from Goldtrack this morning.
Apparently we have to tape up our headlights. What is the preferred type of tape for this? I guess sellotape is no good

No worries, will meet you there. Not sure where we're staying yet

Excellent day, did about 200 miles around the track, averaged 12.3 mpg, scrubbed in the front tyres and ended up with face ache for grinning so much
A big thanks to the Radical team who took me for a five lap tour of how Spa should be driven, an absolutely incredible experience.
Thank you to Scott for putting up with my driving during my instruction session, was well worth it and I felt much more confident afterwards, just ask my tyres and brakes
Some great company during the day and in the restaurant afterwards, big
to safetystop, his lovely wife and friend Julian(?) for being great company in the evening. I hope you all enjoyed the 'ring as much as Spa.
Well done to Gold Track for organising a really good, well run day, thank you.
