I am considering taking my XR8 out on a track day soon but I am a bit worried about the stock brakes and how badly I am going to warp/destroy them.
I have read some things on here that suggest BA/AU brakes are prone to warping after heavy use around country/hills roads, so would it be worth throwing some DBA slotted discs/bendix pads on the front before taking to the track? Is there anything else to watch for with these AUs at the track? I have done trackdays before (not in the XR8) but it was in winter and it looks like it's going to be 30+ this time which is why I am worried.. Cheers. P.S The brakes are stock issue XR8 brakes, not the upgraded Tickford ones. |
