I am looking forward to your MovIt review. Bite, modulation, fade, etc.... I just switched from ceramics to steel. Initial bite seems slightly less but pedal feel during modulation is much improved.
Writing it up in a few minutes, good stuff. One of the challenges for me to drive a turbo car is that there are some sections of the track where I am trail braking while at the same time need to be on the throttle to spool up the turbos. So not sure how best to tackle that problem. High class problem I suppose

That Mustang certainly disappeared from view quickly...
That was a lovely Challenge Mustang from the series a year or two back. Just very pretty and very well set up. Great guy driving it too. He crashed his 'Vette at Infineon last year and bought the 'Stang as a replacement. Fabulous track day toy in my opinion.

Awesome shots. Are your calipers changing color, getting darker, or it shows that way behind black wheels?

What are the spring rates on the 3RS Pete?
If/when I summon the testicular fortitude to turn off the TC and PSM I may no longer use "benign" as a description . But true on the tag In mid-speed steady state corners as I trail brake in, I can feel PSM working in the brake pedal trying to shape the trajectory. Without the electronics it would be interesting to see how it feels. My guess is that most situations would be fine except for 2nd gear WOT applications where the back end would become "exciting". Need to experiment some after I get more used to the car.

No color change on calipers, must be how the photo was taken.

I know exactly what you mean. I need to learn how to left foot break. I've just started doing it on the street and will try to do everyday until it's 2nd nature.
