discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 17y 6m 11d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 13/02/16 01:26 PM Share Posted 13/02/16 01:26 PM PS the burnout pad traction apparently gets lower the more burnouts are done. I saw him slide so slowly into the barrier, just locked it up at like 10 km/h. Was odd to see. If it gets cold and hard, the rubber surface just isn't grippy like bitumen. Makes it harder to do smoke shows too I recall the commentator saying since less friction.

But yes, cold would be greasy. Ordered new rear rotors and pads. Got to thinking, why are my rear rotors warped? the fronts do all the work... then the penny dropped *lightbulb*. yup. I know why now.

I drive around with my handbrake on to help improve stability. "skids".... who would suggest such a thing. was your video of 30PSI2FRY that made me think of it.

Lennox Member 2,586 Member For: 12y 3m 9d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 14/02/16 04:29 AM Share Posted 14/02/16 04:29 AM Do you put the handbrake on after spirited driving? Apparently that can cause the rears to warp if the discs are still hot. I must be long overdue for new rotors 117,000km not sure if they were changed before me purchasing it or not Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21890-wa-spotted-chit-chat-thread/page/3378/#findComment-1579550 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally try to have a cool down, as all components need time to cool. But on that, it is suggested in drivers briefings when you do nights at Barbs that you dont apply your hand brake between runs, due to cracking/warping/welding pads to disc's. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21890-wa-spotted-chit-chat-thread/page/3378/#findComment-1579554 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eg, without cracking paint or marking the outside of the guard?
