What a beautiful track! This palce is huge and very fast. Going to be a big test on these smaller brakes. Great weather and great views of manicured fields and paddock areas. Just beautiful, but now for the bad news as Herman goes on track for the recon lap the brakes go away to nothing. Evidently the dragstrip wasn't as kind to us as we thought. Looks as though the left rear axle nut worked itself loose and the movement after going into turn one pushed the brake piston back into the caliper and he had to pump the brakes get them back so back to the pits to be safe. This was a little unnerving due to the fact that Dubler running the CTS-V Wagon lost his brakes in turn 8 and ended up rolling and flipping over the jersey barrier.
Got the loose nut on the axle tight now and getting prepared to go out for the afternoon session. Now all we have RO worry about is the loose nut behind the wheel......
