Anyone can understand that is absolutely crazy.
If you have a budget of 10000 usd you buy ccb and reduce weight of 13,5 where part of this are not suspended parts. You have the best brake ever and you can also make track days.

That's it. all the carbon parts are no sense waste of money and ccb are not available Oem.
Crazy management
You will go broke with ccb if you do frequent track days.

A lot of Porsche GT3 guys with PCCB look for iron rotor replacement when their ceramic rotors are done.

A bigger brake system will always add weight. That's just physics. Ceramic rotors may have less weight but they also have their drawbacks. Replacement cost is a major one.
This is no sense. Is exactly opposite, believe me I know well in the Monza circuit the difference between ccb and iron brake!

Nobody will do track days all the days. But just one is enough with std brake to waste it. 3 turns and you have to stop, with "new fake brake" 3,5 /4 turns no more.

My topic is the sense of install this new brake or not and my opinion is absolutely NOT!
