It's not this particular one, it's one of the others I had it mixed up. See above for the wheel set up, we upgraded pads to the Ferodo DS1.11 and slotted rotors which made a big difference

Gotcha thanks.

How'd you get the weight so low? Being in the 2400 range with driver is impressive.

I'm actually not sure, that's what he told me so I can't personally confirm that unless I fly to Istanbul

But it makes sense, it's stripped down completely with even door hardware and stuff like that removed, carbon driveshaft, etc. I think he also is a pretty small guy with is a prerequisite for race car drivers haha. My 230lbs doesn't help anything, I'm like the Bowser or Donkey Kong character in Mario Kart bumbling around the track slowing everyone down

2400# with driver? are you sure, how the hell did they do that?

I'd be surprised if this was accurate. Not trying to be rude, but we have even shaved our tub and are about 100 lbs away from 2400 but that is without driver...

what scales were used?

Agreed, and like I said I unfortunately can't confirm. There may be a language barrier and that's without him in it. Let's assume 2400lb range + him and that makes a little more sense
