Just a quick update. Round three never happened.
I struggled with brake issues all day Saturday and despite putting a new Brembo master cylinder and new pads, the brakes would fade badly after a few laps and I would have to pull off. I tried scuffing the pads between sessions and that temporarily restored braking power, but they would go right back to fading again.
The weekend had a few “firsts” for me:
-I bumped myself DOWN a practice group for the first time ever because of pathetic laptimes.
-Ran off track three times for the first time ever. Also a result of not being able to slow the bike down.
-Voluntarily decided not to race and packed everything up Saturday evening.
At this point, I have no plan to go forward. There’s just too many things wrong right now. My gut tell me it’s time to step away.
