@Mich Liesch - Spoon Sport front pads, stock everything else. 👍🏻 Apologies for deleting your comment. Hit the wrong button. 🤦‍♂

Not sure about chasing that GT3 I’d say he was holding you up.

[@Trophy_R]

Brilliant lap, should be proud of that one and your driving skills 👍🏼

[@Ashh6r]

[@bobolimasterflex]

[@BuntaTesla]

what mods do you have? great driving! you did great beating those Porsches lol

[@TrackAli]

Just Spoon Sport front pads. Everything else is stock. 👍🏻

[@user-dm5dr8rv5i]

Maybe itsjust me but i feel like i lose boost, or cant maintain boost in the teens after 4000 rpms... brand new car too only 400 miles so surprised

[@2seep]

What? Are you stupid? Dude let the car break in

Cooling upgrade recommended 132 degree oil from hell X-/

Were your brakes juddering like crazy? I am having the same issue, not with spoon pads but similar, rotors only had 1000 miles on stock pads, put the track pads and on hard brakes on track its shaking galore. Also wicket lap!

[@TrackAli]

No juddering per se, just the noise you can hear in the video. As soon as we take the Spoon pads out the noise disappears, as soon as we put Spoon pads back in it comes back whether we're on road or track.

[@przemek1919]

The brakes were humming - is this normal, or were they almost at the end of their life?

[@TrackAli]

Normal for the Spoon pads from our experience. Brand new discs and pads prior to this trip. 👍🏻

7:49 thats fast! Fk2 did 7:50 😮

[@g0d182]

@@samihakala9920 Fk2 did 7:50 on an old shorter track. Fk8 did 7:43.8, but that's the old track length

[@thefactor6909]

Nice laps ! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@foonghh8878]

but why not in R mode?

[@TrackAli]

Too bumpy for enjoyable lapping at the 'ring. 👍🏻

[@Earl_VTEC]

@@TrackAli you can setup all in the individual mode - i have setup my dampers soft.
