I suspect you may have outgrown the NQSBBK....they have however got you through many track days and no doubt improved your abilities considerably so they owe you nothing
which is well done when you dont have an abundance of power....
10/10 bud

I'd guess Nordschleife isn't any issue to the brakes. Hungaroring is a completly different thing.

Thanks Dave!
Honestly I never thought I would outgrown the NQSBBK with my power. But apparently I brake harder and harder. I think the kit is good enough for my needs but I just need a better pad and better cooling. I have to buy the air ducts and the cooling is done...
BTW, I send you a few mails regarding some disks and pads (for me and for a friend of mine). And Dave, since we are at it, what about a RS 14 for track days? Or is there anything else that is better?
Cheers! :drinking:

Nurburgring is quite easy on the brakes.
I found out that Spa is quite demanding on the brakes (much more demanding than Hungaroring).

Well guys, I was wrong about my times... Seems that my best time improved with over 1.2 seconds...
In fact all the laps from the session below are better than my previous best (my previous best was 2.23.35 and this session the times are 2.23.31, 2.22.74, 2.22.11, 2.22.34, 2.22.41)
And a few comments:
- I tried some different camera angles and this video is with the older Janus device for outside and inside shots and with GoProHero2 for RPM and speed reading.
- at the end the Janus and GoPro are slightly out of sync.
- please notice the multiple missfire issues I had :sad1: BTW did anyone with the 1.4 TSI engine change the OEM coils?
- at 10.40 I lose the back a little bit but, probably because of my previous episodes, I correct the movement at once. I hope to be able to do this every time :innocent:.
Comments are welcome!
Enjoy!
