(not meant to be insulting, seriously, get a slow as fuck car and learn to drive with 0 ABS and pedal feel only...)

Alright, folks. Who is ready for 2025 track season?

Let me be the first to eat my own words from last year's post. I won't be running with BMW CCA this year due to my return to school. The program isn't easy and I moved into a new role, so time and money has been tighter. I'm signed up for the full season with PCA UCR but may have to bail like a bitch if the going gets tough with school.

No changes to the car this year other than oil change. Hope the tires are still happy. Tech inspection and spring maintenance scheduled early April. Looking forward to a great season this year!

Plans for my 2025 track season is getting derailed bcos of the Trump-induced automotive mayhem in more ways than one.

At one point, I was debating whether I should/could attend some lapping events down in the States, but given tension between Canada and the US, as well as a variety of stricter border crossing enforcement measures, things are now looking very unattractive to me for any of these cross-border motorsports trip.

And then there is the problem of tires. My previous set is almost down to the wear bars, and somehow, I didn't have the foresight back in Oct/Nov to order a new set of tires. So now with all the tariffs and stuff, I wonder how much more I'd be paying for new tires. Or I could theoretically run another set I have that is 4 years old, but they were utter crap even back when they were new.

It's gonna be an "interesting" 2025 season...

Damn, Motul RBF 600 has jump to $30 a bottle now. I remember paying $20 last year? (I know, $10, gonna break the bank.)

I may consider switching fluids next season to ATE 200 or stick to a regular off-the-shelf DOT 4 since I don't really use my brakes. Thank you, momentum car (aka slow)

RBF600 was $30 last year as well...

Get SRF or Torque 700 IMO.

SRF will last 1-2 years withouth flushing, typically.

A 50% increase on something is still pretty steep though.

Damn, too rich for my blood.

At this rate, I think I will switch to Walmart Supertech DOT 4.

Yes but how many times per season are you flushing RBF?

SRF is $100 a bottle (1L) - you need 2x RBF bottles to get 1L. The cost increase for better fluid is minimal. SRF has a higher boiling point wet or dry than RBF600.

I only do a flush at the beginning of the season and after July. I guess what I'll try to do is boil the brake fluid this season.

BRB - Going to Walmart.

If you ran SRF you probably wouldn't have to flush for 2 years... so cost is same or less

Damn. My air/oil separator boot is torn and leaking oil on the side of the engine. 4 hours labour + $25 for parts. RIP.

Gonna have to go with used brake fluid now.
