Adding a brake duct to the camaro seem pretty easy. Since there is a duct opening already, just need to mod the back plate and add the hose.
1:26.6 at Grattan is definitely fast! That's on par with GT350 and C7 Z51, or even faster. |
1000F rotor temps, are you using paint to verify that? In any case, visibly red rotors in daylight is certainly in the 1000F region. Given my hub temps after cool-down and how quickly the rotors are checking/cracking, I wouldn't doubt mine are right there too. A flex-hose connecting the bumper duct to the backing plate seems to be the next logical step.
1.26.6 is a tenth better than track record for NASA TTA, for what it's worth, and I was maintaining consistent high 1.26's all day.
