I understand the rear brake adjuster will tighten up and needs to be checked regularly. However, is it normal for it to return to a quarter out turn after one session? Whether I turn it out a half or two turns it's back to one quarter on both sdes like gum on a shoe.

Yes, removing the parking brake would help but we prefer to have something to stop with in the event of a fluid related failure.

Dual master cylinders??? Well it's nice to dream.

Race well,

How well do you think the parking brake (notice I didn't call it the emergency brake) will stop the car at 80-90-100 mph? My WAG is probably not much at all. (might be fun to test the theory - with someone else's car and tires )

Parking brake can self adjust during the race, adding unnecessary drag. I recommend deleting the parking brake - it's like cheap HP.

P.S. Stock master cylinder is a dual system.

Yep. I came off the track a month ago to find my order adjuster full tight, and rr 1/4 turn from tight. Rotors were blue.
