I love seeing owners with the stones to track their cars with authentic body parts. Car looks right at home on the track.

The Red wheels are getting popular i believe, but i was thinking about picking more colors. Maybe Orange TE's as a second set?

Sub 2:00 should definitely be doable with this car, hope you can make it happen.
Jason kim hit a 2:06 on the destroyed tires, but even he said my car needs power. haha. I do agree with the lack of AP1 low end.
I hope so too, and thank you! I really appreciate the support, especially from others who hit the track.

I was lucky that we had some awesome photographers who allowed us to take the photos for free.
Bill Wang was a great photographer! I am going to purchase a GoPro to have some videos from multiple angels of the car.

They are def a great street/ track pad. They are not noisy at all! and they have a goo aggressive bite on the track. When they are heated up they perform very well, and rotor life
is outstanding. I just wish they lasted longer, but ive been on this set since early December with daily driving, and track. So i think i can get atleast another track day out of them.

Def bang for the buck. Let me know if you are interested in a set, as i sell them. Just cover the shipping, and i can send out a set at my cost.

Thank you sir! Alot of people ask my if i am afraid of breaking anything, and i really don't see what the purpose of all the aero R&D if you aren't going to put it to work.

My friend Loi, of Loispec garage helped me stencil out some bumper end plates for trapping air. This will be most noticeable through the high speed sweepers.
I spoke with the guys from ASM Via Facebook and Google translate haha, they were nice enough to let me know the experiences they had between the different sizes. This let me distinguish the proper size, and angle for my setup.

Example image of what was their version one. They have a slightly different one now.

If you want something with similar feel to the HC+800 but with better track life give the Project Mu club racers a try. I have gone through about 3-4 sets of each.

Club Racers are pricey aren't they? I get the HC800 for $80.00
