Just like to add another problem I`ve encountered with me P1.
Done about 4500 miles now at a reasonable lick and discovered that the UPGRADED discs have hairline cracks all over due to excessive heat me thinks?!?!?!?!
Would be interested to hear from Prodrive on this one as these are supposed to be up for racing and track days.
I better not get a bill for some new ones when it gets it`s 7500 mile service or the **** will really hit the fan.
Lets see how good my warranty is eh

Cool

Hey look you`ve either got it or you hav`nt
Still should`nt be knackered I dont think.
I`m sure they should be able to handle a little LFB and Prodrive told me to give em a good pasting when I complained about them glazing up under normal highway driving conditions. Go and do some 100 - 0 test they said..................so I did.????
Still work ok though

Aaron

A small amount of heat crazing is normal and should be expected on discs that have been very hot.
