Just took my 2009 C63 Renntech to a track day at the Autobahn Country Club in Joilet, Ill. What a Awesome Place. Truly a car lovers paradise. I wish I lived in Chicago, I would join in a heartbeat. They have a lot of venues for the public, check their web site out.

How did your brakes hold up? I've been thinking about trying it out once, but if I have to get new brakes afterwards I am going to hold off until next season.

I did alot of down shifting early in the day and had no problems until after lunch, we where running the south track and decided to brake more and see if it made any difference on my speed, when I came into the pits they said my brake where smoking. I drove around and they where squishy, after cool down they seemed back to normal.

Definitely need to get them checked. Should I go with stock pads or do you know of some after market pads that are better?

I have no clue. I've heard stories of people needing new brakes after running the track hard.

I'm sure there are more qualified people on this board that can answer your question. I look forward to hearing more as well.
