RE: Motul brake fluid: why 660 over 600

Yes -- I had the same problem with SRF. I had to use Motul 660 for two events last year. I bought a little extra when SRF came available again.

RE: Motul brake fluid: why 660 over 600

Interesting discussion! The SR8s are a bit heavier, and Radical does have an option for 300mm rotors for SR8s (same basic caliper, just a different mount offset). I'd like to think I arrive at a corne...

RE: Motul brake fluid: why 660 over 600

RE: Wireless TPMS

This does look promising! I'd love to hear from Matt about this system. CANbus data is perfect. I'm wondering about PID programming flexibility and tire temp support.

RE: Parting out 2007 SR8

Seems like I've got a deal cooking for the chassis, body panels, hoses, etc. Once the dust settles on this deal, I'll put up a final list of what's left.

RE: My SR8 at Sebring

@tmpoquette Yes, I surprise a lot of GT cars with that acceleration. I'm running in the video with my RPB engine right now which is the 2.8l with custom cams. The RPA engine is a bit slower, with mayb...
