Hallett is fun! Hard on brakes.

I got my first sheetmetal damage there! Turn 1, passing an M3, went off straight trying to brake late with no brakes, on the wrong side of the track, before I knew any better. It was a long and bumpy ride until I found the tire wall.

This was in 1999, in my 98 ITR, my first HPDE after a dozen autocrosses. I thought I had it figured out... My future wife was PISSED. Oh well, it buffed right out.

Let me clarify, Hallet is a very safe track, I just made a large number of mistakes leading up to that incident. OEM brakes were not the least of my mistakes, but they were right up there.
