A bunch of hoons in our local club hired a skid pad for 4 hours last week, to learn how good/bad their cars' brakes were. Some entertaining results. I rode shotgun in my buddy's AC Cobra replica, absolutely awesome grip and power. Great fun also in a whale of a Chevelle...handled like a sack of mashed potatoes, but what a hoot Never been in a car doing so many continous 360's in my life. Took the A100 down for a laugh, and got some massive air....under the rears
This run was only about a 5" lift - we managed at least 8" on another run. I could see the tail lifting in the rear-view mirror... scary stuff, but oh sooo much fun.
They told us it was 80% grip dry, and only about 20% wet (of the normal road conditions)
