Maybe with 0 toe, that won't happen. I went down to -2.25 with slight toe out for DD and 1 weekend per month track use.
It's part of CBS. The car adjusts the recommended service intervals depending on how hard you drive it. I did an oil change, and then took the car to 3 track days in the next week, and it read 5,000 mi until next service afterwards, even though I'd barely driven in terms of miles.

If it's not changing for you, either you're not pushing the car very hard, or you're not going to the track frequently enough to notice the change.

Very interesting, I've never read this before on the forums.

The forum's new standard for speed is how quickly your car's computer recommendes an oil change. Lap times and max bench press are so gen F8X.

Is PFC working on bringing the 08 and 11 compounds to the G8X platform? It seems like the main options at the moment are Pagid, Hawk, and Carbotech.

Anyone try slicks yet?

The winter set of wheels has 275/35/19s tires on it that need to be replaced so I might try slicks for a weekend. Pirelli DH 275/675/19 should fit if my source can get them.
