Awesome photos, the track is where the M2 belongs to fully utilize it's potential! The streets is just not safe enough or legal to explore the cars limit.

Hockenheim silver absolutely pops! Here's mine...

Going to the pitts, getting ready to go out on track

Slick!!!!

Thanks! And this goes without saying, but wow, these wheels are soooo easy to clean. That was worth the switch alone.

What brake pads do you run?

Would you do a square setup? I tried it for the first time this week.

OEM brakes, but I used Castrol SRF Fluid
No stopping issues on the track
(track was Circuits of the Americas)
OEM wheels (19s)

I was told that track fluid on stock brakes is overkill. Stock pads will be melted to goo before they put enough heat into the system to boil the stock brake fluid. Best to have the fluid be the weakest link (lowest temp); super-high temp fluid makes it more likely to cook the seals/overheat the pads - both are harder to recover from and more damaging to the car than boiling fluid.

Have you ever seen what happens when fluid fails and the pedal goes to the floor with a concrete wall at the end of a straight??

I have and it's not pretty.

Your advise is absolute BS man!!!

The choice is not one or the other... DO BOTH!

Lighten up Francis. Of course it is best to do both, but my response was for somebody who said specifically that they were running stock pads with race quality fluid (and the most expensive kind I know of). I don't think it is 'absolute BS' that this is overkill, or that you are better off with fluid failing than with seals or pads failing - same result possible with that wall, just more chance to catch and correct on earlier laps, if it was the fluid overheating. Just my opinion.

Yes, I've had the Mperf coils for a while now. I think it rides better than stock and obviously it looks way better.

Snapped a quick pic on the way home. Not the best lighting but golden hour was amazing and had to try!

Yep picked it up from NSW and drove back to SA. Very limited options in SA for M2C’s.
