took it to the track(thunderhill) today. can't get enough of flogging the MS3 through all 15 turns! got a chance to really break in the hawk HP plus pads and nitto NT05. pads have excellent grip and consistency, definitely a big step up from OEM pads as far as the track is concerned. they are quiet when cold or hot but noisy as hell when warm... i can live with it for now. the NT05s got better the more miles i put on them, could still use more of a break in. felt like i was getting a little tread squirm entering corners but once i was set on the line they gripped well. also took me a while to get the PSI dialed in. they started to get a little greasy by the end of each session but it was also in the 90s all day. speaking of which, it's the first time i've run the MS3 hard in those temps and was getting pretty bad heat soak by the end of each session. made me think about a front mount...
^^that sucks, my bro is a PDR Tech, if your ever near

on a side note im all big smiles today.... ran against my bro's 2011 WRX 3rd gear for him 4th for me at about 70mph and i pulled on him.... finally... lovin the performance mods.
I did that before a track event in hopes 3rd wouldn't grind. :no: **** you, my trans says. No such luck.
That third is a b**** for sure!
