Looking at Eagles Canyon's Competitors map it looks like you have some pretty good straits that you will be seeing speeds above 100 mph, maybe even 120, and then hauling your car down for some pretty tight turns. I would recommend upgrading your pads or you risk the chance of overheating your stock ones. Been there done that and it is NOT fun.

I have mentioned to others that I use Carbotech, ctbrakes.com ,xp-12f and xp-8r on track and they have been very good. Tracking your car is very different than AutoX and much longer so your brakes need to be up for the stress and duration of it.

Oh, watch your tire pressures too.

Looking at the mods you have Caveman you will definitely have some fun and be one of the faster cars on track that day. I would hate to see something happen due to lack of brakes. You have had that car for too long for something to happen now.

The drag strip is like sniffing glue, it's cheap, it's a decent buzz, it doesn't last long and they are all the same.
Road racing is like China White Heroin, the buzz is stronger, the high lasts for hours, it's extremely addictive and they are all different.
I can't wait for my next
Track fix.
