    Morning all ,, did the bedding in process on rs29 ,, hopefully done correctly. What I noticed on stage 2 hard braking after 3-5 runs. Brakes felt like they were binding is this about normal. Until they cooled off that took a good 5 mins,, I’m guessing they just got that hot. ,,?? Could here disc’s pinging,,?? I’ll check hand brake isn’t running to tight. Road use always have that adjusted to about 3 clicks do you run handbrake a bit loose as brakes are running hotter??
    I'm on APs all round, so can't comment, as I have never experienced the standard brakes. Never had issue with handbrake though.....

      Another thought I’ve had today, Is as disc’s and pads are new ,, there’s only about 2 or 3 mm when fitted with pistons full in. So with heat expansion new pads and disc binding! ,, hopefully will wear a little when used, And they will run free when they heat up again :smokin:

          So glad you enjoyed it, the CSL is an amazing car on track and it comes alive here. I really can't express enough how it goes up to another level with the Cup tyres on, it really is other worldly on the tyres it was designed for .

          Keep using it and you will soon learn that it is like big go-kart :supz:.
