• Prior to each track event, verify the front
and rear brake pads have more than ½ pad
thickness remaining. If the brake pads re-
quire changing, please burnish prior to
track outing at full pace.
NOTE:
Use of DOT 4 brake fluid is suggested for
extended track usage due to increased ther-
mal capacity.
• At the 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 Brembo High
Performance brake system.
• It is recommended that each track outing
should end with a minimum of one cool
down lap using minimal braking.
• If equipped with a removable lower front
fascia grille, it is recommended to remove it
for track use during warm/hot weather to
improve cooling airflow to critical pow-
ertrain and cooling system components.
• All SRT vehicles are track tested for
24 hours of endurance, however, it is rec-
ommended that suspension system, 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,
driveline and brake system. This may affect
noise vibrations and harshness (NVH)
countermeasures designed into your ve-
hicle. New components may need to be
installed to return the system to the original
NVH performance.
• Tire pressure:
–
40 psi (276 kpa) hot, recommend 32 psi
(221 kpa) front, 30 psi (207 kpa) rear
cold
NOTE:
It is recommended that you target 40 psi
(276 kpa) Hot Tire Pressure at the conclusion
of each track session. Starting at 32 psi
(221 kpa) Front & 30 psi (207 kpa) Rear Cold
and adjusting based on ambient & track con-
ditions is recommended. Tire pressure can be
monitored via the instrument cluster display
and can assist with adjustments.
Track burnishing your brakes:
To avoid “green lining fade” during track use,
the brake pads and rotors must have a ther-
mal burnish for factory installed components
or when new brake friction components are
installed:
1. Use one track session to burnish brakes by
driving at 75% speed. Brake at approxi-
mately 0.60-0.80g maximum without
ABS intervention.
2. Lap the track in this manner until you
start smelling the brakes. Continue for
another ½ lap at speed, then do a two lap
cool down with minimal brake applies.
Make sure the brakes are not smoking. If
they are, do another cool down lap.
