There was no tech inspection however, I did make every effort to make sure my car was track ready and safe. I had fairly new tires and brakes, and I replaced my brake fluid a couple of days before the event. I carefully inspected the car to make sure I had no oil or coolant leaks and, just to be sure, I took it into the dealership for an inspection in case I missed anything. As far as wear, I lost very little thickness from my pads even though my wheels were black with brake dust by the end of the day. I definitely took a couple of mm's of rubber off the tires, especially the front, but I did not wear them anywhere near to the point of replacement. I could probably run another two or three track days like this one before they were completely shot. I expect them to now last for the rest of the summer, at least.
