How and where are you measuring those temperatures? Something doesn't sound right...

This last run at Willow Springs was measured using two tools. One you'll see attached are caliper temperature sensors which record the highest temperature in lock it in. the other was a pyrometer on the rotors but that was by the time I got to the pits so there was some cool down on there. It's a fast track and those cooling ducts I think you're doing a great job I've had similar results in the ZO6 running to CC brakes.

My times are not great, they're for the lower temperatures. We'll see as I get better those temperatures should go up.

Ahhhhh. You were stating degrees C for the rotor temps, and degrees F for ambient.

Actually, I stand corrected that the Caliper was high around 300-330 F. Therefore the rotors had to reach significantly higher, but by the time I hit the pits, the pyrometer reflected 276 F
