Immediately swapped out the pads with Ferodo dms1.11 and srf brake fluid. Improved the bite quite a bit and since I’ve run these pads and fluid on all my track cars, I expect they will perform flawlessly when I get this Gt3 to the track for the first time in a couple weeks. I fell in love with Ferodo ds1.11 and girodisc rotors on my other cars and expect the same results on the Gt3. Ps, I run cota quite a bit and that track is notoriously hard on brakes and the ferod/giro setup never flinches. If you want to cut the guess work out of Porsche track brake set ups, contact Clark Hamerly at Apex Performamce in South Carolina. He knows the tried and true setups for all
Porsches and the best prices and customer service I’ve ever experienced. Many on Rennlist use him and would say the same.
