The pads sometimes have a coating or paint that when new can sometimes catch fire, but nothing to worry about, it can happen to a 996TT with Pagids for example, the orange paint sometimes catches fire.

Glowing happens to all cars that brake from extreme speeds. If you watch some le mans races you will see same thing happens. In Gran Turismo 3 the PS2 game it also happens there.

Thats the first I had seen an actuall full Top Gear. I want more. I was laughing so hard when they were talking about "Bling" and how the Escalade was the biggest "bling" out there.
