Hello everyone,
Just thought I would introduce myself. I've been lurking here off and on for years, every time I got tempted to buy my fathers Z28. He ended up making me an offer I couldn't refuse so as of this weekend I'm now the proud owner of a black '93 Z28 with 40k on the odometer. It's basically stock with the exception of a Moroso CAI and Hurst shifter. The current plan is to catch up on the maintenance and take it to a track day August 31st (Bertil Roos - Performance Driving Clinic up at Pocono). I'd love to hear anyone experiences with Roos? Did a search and didn't find much. I'm planning to flush the brake fluid and do other maintenance items people have suggested here in past pre- track postings but I'm waffling on the brake pads. I read the suggestions, I've had Hawk pads on a street car in the past and the brake squeal drove me nuts. Any chance the stock pads will suffice for the first track outing? or am I dreaming? Other suspension and engine mods will have to wait until I finish other projects. Dan |

I have a LS1 setup available...
LS1 f-body 12" slotted rotors (16" wheel OK obviously) C5 'vette calipers - rebuilt, "Corvette" shaved off, then painted red. Pad abutment brackets for f-body, also painted red. Hawk HPS pads. Russel braided stainless steel lines (front only) This whole setup has right at 2000 miles on it since I rebuilt the calipers and put new rotors on it. Looking for $200 for that. The pads are great street pads, but would likely not hold up to a HPDE... but they're way better than a stock pad! I'm up in Danville / Bloomsburg... |
