Well the first thing that jumps to mind is the Chris Harris review, he reported brake fade after just a few laps on a very short, low speed circuit.

If what he says is true, then High performance pads and some slotted rotors will allow the stock brakes to handle light track duty with a stock car, but if 100hp was added, and the average lap speed increased, the car would require a substantial brake upgrade was my only point.

Was not knocking the car at all. Stock brakes are 100% ok for street use.
