Gearing up for a track day at Buttonwillow 13CW in January. Ordered new front brake pads and rotors (Project Mu Club Racers and Centric high-carbon blanks) along with Audi RS 3 OEM air brake guides as a cost-effective solution to introduce some brake cooling. As always, my goal is to bring the car back home, but the cherry on top would be a lap time <2:15.

New front brake pads and rotors installed. I also flushed the brake/clutch systems with some fresh Endless RF-650.

On a whim I came to this site after Streets this weekend. Good to see your car and everything you've done. We follow each other on facebook didn't know you have done so much to your Fit.

How'd Streets go for you? Yes, we do. I also manage the California Honda Fit Owners Facebook page. Will be cool to see you do that K-swap on the Spoon Fit.

Very relatable. Even when they're fully off the throttle, it takes effort to pass some of these cars. Yeah, Streets is definitely more suited to a car such as the Fit. How'd you end up doing as far as times go?

No timing. Was a last minute thing that I took it out. We were taking out an s2000 out to test the supercharger and new wing. The day before I decided to take the fit with us, all I did was an oil change can run through on the car lol.

The Streets is more technical than the big track. That makes it more fun for under-100 mph cars and motorcycles. How did the s2k do with a supercharger? Are you dyno-ing for rear-wheel HP?

Yeah, the s2000 was already dynod. We were testing a new wing and basically having fun, nothing serious. We've been working so much that we needed some fun.

1) What rear-wheel HP are you achieving on the dyno with forced induction?

2) I always wondered about wings and diffusers. How fast does the s2k have to be going for you to feel the benefits of a rear wing? Are your benefits all "seat of the pants," or is there some way to measure the additional downforce?

3) With wings and additional HP, you don have to reinforce the subframes?
