Black Series on Track
Hey Fellas -
Have any of you taken your BS on the track yet? If so, any chances you would recommend? Brake pads, castor/camber? In the GTR Pro we achieved a nice camber with the shims. Is that similar with a BS?
Thanks in advance!

fun ones.
I have 5 trackdays on mine so far (another one booked this weekend).
I run shim number 4 on the front end, this gives -2.5 camber which is nice for road/track. Adding the shims alters the toe so you'll need to get this straightened back out or you'll munch the insides of your tyres.
The MO1 tyres are fast for 3 laps but otherwise awful. I'm running regular Cup2 now until I can find someone with stock of MO2.
No issues with stock brake setup (so far) however I've been running in the rain or on tracks that are easy on brakes.
The car is extremely stable and composed at high speeds. I'm taking it to goodwood at the weekend, even with my cack-handed driving I wouldn't be surprised if it breaks the lap record for a road car.
