aggressive, and since you are tracking it, the wing and splitter are justified XD those stoptechs look so snug under those 18' lol...

Why no red StopTech's?
You still using the stock pads they come with?

I heard Red Bull gives you diarrhrea.

Brucewonder · 04-10-2011, 09:10 PM

how difficult is it to drive with that lip on? Look like it will scrap everywhere for a daily driver

My car is lowered about 0.75" from stock and the lip has not been too bad. But obviously you'd have to be patient on ramps, speed bumps, etc.

cool cool

Richard, lookin absolutely sick! It is awesome that you are actually using these parts as they were designed, on the track! Did you complete the ducting to the front brakes? I'm sure you are giving Lou tons of other ideas now! Ha!

chris s · 04-11-2011, 03:03 AM

Well done Richard, as usual!

At this point the StopTechs (with street pads) are still very consistent when pushed hard, even when Tony drove it. In a few months when the car gets a cage I will get ducting done.

Lou is an excellent driver and he will even be faster soon with some extra performance.

Thanks Richard!

And I can't wait for the new set up...

You must not live inside the loop, my 135i scraped on soooooo many different ramps and drive entrances around Houston no matter how slow or angled I approached them.

Kinda miss Houston, MSR 40 minutes south, TWS 1.5 hours northwest. Now that they closed gateway there is nothing within 5 hours of St. Louis.

Sorry for the OT post

You still using the stock pads they come with? . __________________ Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."
