First Autox
While we're working on some more performance developments, went to a bit of an impromptu (cold) autox last weekend and got some footage and impressions.

I've already got a set of lightly used Hankook RS-4's rdy to go onto my BRZ when the temperature gets back above 0C consistently for 3 weeks. I had the Firehawk Indy 500's before these and the difference is day and night, the grip is phenomenal on the RS-4's. I expect the 2nd Gen twins will be a force in autocross and on the track with minor adjustments.

I agree - but it also depends on how they are classed. Tuner4 would be ideal as the turbo Tuner3 cars are too fast. |

@Strat_FRS Are the 2022 Brake pads the same as the gen1 cars? I was planning on swapping over my AP Sprint Kit from my 2014, but found out that the AP kit doesn't fit so now I have to stick with the stock calipers until they make an updated part.

The new ones are supposed to be a little better with heat but I suspect they aren't really track capable. |

Awesome, thanks! I don't have any of the old stock pads since I ran the AP kit for the last 5 years so I didn't have anything to compare.

The 2022 brakes have more bite than the 2015 FRS ones - so it does look like a different compound.
