Yeah that was cool. The GT2 RS and the Lambo of recent looks like they had the track to themselves. This cat here looks like he gave up at least 6-10 seconds (my guess) because of the traffic he ran into. Not to mention, he was probably a little nervous hoping some one doesn't clip or hit him. He would have def. been under 7 min. for sure without it.

There were around 15 cars that he passed in that lap; some held him up badly and some made him have to vary his line such that he couldn’t maintain the optimum line. I have no doubt that if he was alone without others on track he would easily have been 10 seconds faster.

For anyone tracking the car, you can probably see why the ZP tyres are the ‘hot ticket’.

7.04 with traffic in an non-factory backed effort is mindblowing

The Brake upgrade is now available. Set of two front steel rotors and two different brake pad options are available. One for pure track use and one for street and the occasional club-/track-night use.
We're still in the development of the brake cooling system, but will be available to order soon as well.

Do you have to cut/modify the brake dust shields for a proper install of the rentnech brake ducts?
