I was condidering to get the racelogic 20Hz BT unit but the position accuracy is worse than the one I currently have.

I just realized it is for androids. I use an iPhone 6 with my Harry's Lap timer app, although having difficulty overlaying OBD info. Which obd reader do you use ?

Great shot (and lap) Alex which reminds me to ask... how did your new BREMBO brake set up perform ?

Matt there was a mistake done by brembo for their racing pads and I went with the road sporty pads the brakes came with.
Surprisingly I survived although the confidence was not great and of course the pads got destroyed. On the way back there was hardly any front braking.

Interesting fact.
My rear Mintex M1144 pads lost 5mm of material in these 40 laps or so that I did.

Annoying fact of the day about the Kw clubsport suspension.
In order to change rear pads you need to unbolt the rear dampers.
Epic fail!

The new version (2014).
Mind you my rear calipers are OEM, you have AP Racing.

That's an impressively low wear rate for the rear pads in OE callipers I guess the front BREMBOs were very busy munching the soft pads

It seems odd KW overlooked the OE rear brake set up with their CS kit. Did you manage to undo just the bottom bolt and swing the rear shock out of the way enough to change your rear pads ? I bet you miss your old OHLINS set up

Yes Matt. I miss the Ohlins especially when I go to the track.
The Ohlins as a race suspension was dead easy to adjust. Just crawl under. Job done.

The Kw needs a jack, lift the car etc etc.

Swiss MOT. Its the way it is.
