NOTE: It is recommended that you target 40psi (276kpa)
Hot Tire Pressure at the conclusion of each track session.
Starting at 32psi (221kpa) Front & 30psi (207 kpa) Rear
Cold and adjusting based on ambient & track conditions
is recommended. Tire pressure can be monitored via the
Driver Information Display (DID) and can assist with
adjustments.
Track burnishing your brakes:
To avoid "green lining fade" during track use, the brake
pads and rotors must have a thermal burnish for factory
installed components or when new brake friction com-
ponents are installed:
1. Use one track session to burnish brakes by driving at
75% speed. Brake at approximately 0.60-0.80g max
without ABS intervention.
2. Lap the track in this manner until you start smelling
the brakes. Continue for another ½ lap at speed, then
do a two lap cool down with minimal brake applies.
Make sure the brakes are not smoking. If they are, do
another cool down lap.
3. Do not continue for more than 1 full burnishing lap
after you start smelling the brakes. Do not get them
smoking heavily. This will get them too hot and affect
their life negatively in future track use.
4. Allow vehicle to sit and cool in the paddock for at least
30 min. If an infrared thermal gun is available, allow
rotors to cool to 200°F (93.3°C) before going back out.
5. There should be a thin, ash layer when inspecting the
pads installed in the caliper. Having the ash layer go
more than half the thickness of the pad material
indicates too aggressive of a burnish.
