2009 Svtoa Redline At Mosport Int'l - Gabriel - 09-29-2009 I have a few pics taken at the SVTOA event that took place at Mosport International this month and I thought about sharing them with you . The big track was an awesome experience for me . Ken had been there before and it showed . We had great weather , great instructors , a great experience . Here we go : 1. Getting ready ![]() 2. My co-pilot and me ![]() 3. Chasing Cobras . And managed to pass one ... believed or not ![]() 4. Chased by Ken . Not for long ... I managed to pass him uphill on the back straight but then he was faster through the turns . Passed me and never caught up with him again . More experience makes a diference . Believed it :ph34r: ![]() 5. Move out the way ! ![]() 6. Classroom ... watch and learn from the MAN ![]() 7. Representing FC ... at least trying ![]() 8.

Let someone try to unscramble that :lol: NefCanuck 2009 Svtoa Redline At Mosport Int'l - Spinal - 09-29-2009 nice pics, nef what car are you sitting in taking the pics? 2009 Svtoa Redline At Mosport Int'l - Spinal - 09-29-2009 eek double post 2009 Svtoa Redline At Mosport Int'l - NefCanuck - 09-29-2009 Spinal,Sep 28 2009, 03:44 PM Wrote:nice pics, nef what car are you sitting in taking the pics? Yup, which lead to the car behind me coming up to me later saying that they thought I was going to drop the camera more than a few times as I was fumbling around trying to get a decent shot. NefCanuck 2009 Svtoa Redline At Mosport Int'l - NikiterZTS - 09-29-2009 Gabriel how were your brake pads this time? 2009 Svtoa Redline At Mosport Int'l - Gabriel - 09-30-2009 NikiterZTS,Sep 28 2009, 10:34 PM Wrote:Gabriel how were your brake pads this time?Everything worked well . I used the same Adaptive One pads that I had before buying the ones ( Satisfied ) that gave me trouble at Cayuga . These don't fade when hot , actually the hotter the better , as long as the brake fluid stays ... fluid :D . Also they don't heat up as much as OEM's and there's less dust . But IMO Mosport Int'l is not hard on brakes . No comparison with DDT . 2009 Svtoa Redline At Mosport Int'l - NefCanuck - 10-01-2009 Gabriel,Sep 29 2009, 10:37 PM Wrote:NikiterZTS,Sep 28 2009, 10:34 PM Wrote:Gabriel how were your brake pads this time?Everything worked well .

Tell that to the driver of the Ford Flex :ph34r: :lol: Mine turned an interesting shade of blue (Ford OEM 26K on 'em) after a few runs once I started getting the hang of things. I can only imagine what they would have done had I not chickened out and kept the hammer down in the back straight to the top of the second rise :P NefCanuck 2009 Svtoa Redline At Mosport Int'l - Gabriel - 10-01-2009 NefCanuck,Sep 30 2009, 10:52 AM Wrote:Gabriel,Sep 29 2009, 10:37 PM Wrote:NikiterZTS,Sep 28 2009, 10:34 PM Wrote:Gabriel how were your brake pads this time?Everything worked well .

But IMO Mosport Int'l is not hard on brakes . No comparison with DDT . Well that was interesting , the Flex is pretty much an SUV , doesn't it ? And the rules said no trucks and suv's . They maybe forgot to mention "except if you're Dixie Ford's owner and a sponsor ". Yes he was talking about brake fade on the Flex . |
