TRACK USE
Guidelines For Track Use
NOTE: Because of the extreme conditions encountered
during track use, any damage or wear associated with
track use is not covered by warranty.
It is recommended that the shocks be operated in RACE
mode, if equipped.
ESC is track capable in all modes.
Prior To Each Track Event/Day
Verify all fluids are at the correct levels. Refer to “Fluid
Capacities” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further
information.
Verify the front and rear brake pads have more than ½
pad thickness remaining. If the brake pads require
changing, please burnish prior to track outing at full
pace.
Tire pressure:
35psi hot recommended. This typically can be
achieved with cold pressures between 25 and 29 psi,
depending on driver, track, and ambient conditions.
Conclusion Of Each Track Event
It is recommended that a brake bleed procedure is
performed to maintain the pedal feel and stopping
capability of your brake system.
It is recommended that each track outing should end
with a minimum of 1 cool down lap using minimal
braking.
Following each track session, tires should be inspected
for wear.
NOTE:
All SRT vehicles are track tested for 24 hours of endur-
ance, however, it is recommended that suspension sys-
tem, brake system, prop shaft, and ½ shaft boots should
be checked for wear or damage after every track event.
Track usage results in increased operating temperatures
of the engine, transmission, clutch, driveline and brake
system. This may affect noise (NVH) countermeasures
