Thanks Alex, what would i expect to get from those, 12500 miles
Yes, if you are not tracking it.
I have done 3000 miles in 18 months with a new R35 and 2000 will have been track miles.
I am just about to put on my 5th set of tyres.
On my 6th set of pads and 2nd set of rotors.
Done 10 engine oil and filter changes and 5 tranny fluid changes and 2 diff.
Alex.
So a set of tyres and pads is effectively returning 500 miles give or take with track use, thats obscene! Any reason why, weight?
Weight obviously does not help, however 500 miles can equate to circa 400 laps depending on the circuit, so do the maths.
Yes FUN can be extremely expensive.
I was at Knockhill today and completed 140 laps, regularly turning in sub 57 second laps and used 150 litres of fuel in the process.
First job tomorrow is car on ramp and a complete after track strip down of the brakes for inspection and replace as required.
Also a fluid change for brakes, engine, gearbox and diff.
