I got a chuckle out of it when they added the big Brembos as an option. After years and years of "could use more power", they give it massive brakes sized for 300+ hp, and +5hp...
In many racing/track applications would it still not be better to have the Brembos alongside better pads, tires, and fluid regardless of power??
