Do your self a favor and get a real BBK. I had a buddy who cracked his k sport rotors after just two track days, they sent him replacement ones for free but still i would not rock them on my car. Get a real BBK if you plan on doing track events like the AP sprint or Endurance that is being offered by essex parts. If you dont plan on tracking your car then you dont need a bbk unless its for show and if you are doing it for show then the k sport, d2, or megan would be fine.

Not sure how many laps they ran in Texas, GST Motorsports has been running the BBK since the beginning of the season. UMS this was their first event in this season and using the brakes also.

how much time do you attribute to those brakes at TMS? GTA is a really about big fish in a small pond there. Not even the financial backers (world racing) brought their own car out. GST for sure has a fast car. But there are many compromises they have made because the parts were given to them. I can't comment on the current performance quality of Ksport brakes, but I am saying that looking at what cars they give free or discounted brakes to isn't a good barometer.

Anyone else notice how underdeveloped for the track that blue evo above is based on pictures?
