Brake fading
E-volve Wrote:I'm driving around with the mintexes M1144 for almost a year, they don't really fade that fast. But after a few laps on breaking before the tarzan they will get really hot and begin to fade a bit.

When i'm off the circuit the smoke comes out of the wheels Cool

But the serious upgrade is almost complete..
I guess you brake a lot harder then I do then. I didn't have any problems with the tarzan.. but at the same time I must admit, I take plenty of margin in braking and I don't go full out on the straight anyways.
