Yep the brakes plus the road legal slicks realy had some grip.Standard 172 brakes are great imo. For the track you will get fade on most road pads I've have thought. I say +1 for DS2500s though, I'll be getting those on mine soon.
edde had them on his dci (with slicks!) at the nurburgring and the braking force was intense to say the least.
PS going to sell those tyres some time just got to go back to the Uk and get pics next weekend.
