Guess it could work in a better heat managed car, but look on the bright side ;) :

Met with few other fellow owners and went for a 200 mile blast in the mountains.

Had a break in a lovely restaurant.

While eating bear stakes and blueberry strudels all came to the same conclusion - our cars are special indeed.
The way they dealt with bumpy, Corsica-like twisty, off cambered roads was simply mind blowing.
Car could probably take it like that all day long, I couldn't. Unfamiliar roads with some traffic, trying to be fast but safe above all, exhausted me.
Still overwhelmed with joy and adrenaline, but a Sunday well spent!

Swapped the Cup2 under and checked the brake pad status - seems to be ok for one track day.
Brake piston seals looked to be ok so maybe the stainless steel back plate in the pads (EBC RP-X) help with thermal issues.

Unfortunately my normal route home was shut off, so I had to find an alternative route and I found a "C" road (only one cars width with lots of sharp blind bends. Wow this car just ate the road and all the bends . I met a couple of cars and had to use the brakes very firmly , wow the car just dealt with everything. The best thing was the road didn't take me where I thought it would so I had to do it all again

LOL we had similar moment the other day - thought we took the correct small road but it ended up getting smaller and smaller. A lady walking her dog looked us strangely when 3 GR's took a U turn on small road early morning in the middle of nowhere..

Best adventures..
 
Went to rotate my wheels and realised I'd mislaid the locking wheelnut key.
A visit to my local dealer and 4 new locking nuts purchased and fitted.

Wife's uncle used to ride his bike on holiday excursions with friends. He and about a dozen others were riding somewhere in Dorset (maybe?) and rode down a narrow lane. Local farmer stood by his gate and nodded as they rode past. An hour or so later they rode back because the lane ended. Farmer was still there. He again nodded greetings and said "don't go nowhere do it".
