Yes, I confirm,they do! But less than I was expecting...!

I have to say that I made my sessions in a smart way : 3 fast laps in a row and then a resting lap.
Sometime I stopped in the box for a couple of minutes (that was when I did 4 fast laps ).
It was enough to let the brakes come home with me

I was afraid of discs loosing shape, but the behaviour was perfect!

Now I'm planning to try another circuit less stressing for engine and brakes (but more for tires and suspensions), with more turns, like Adria or Varano De'Melegari (center-east of Italy).
I'm beginning to be a track addicted

PS: Sorry for my messy English...

Black ///M 's right! It's the regular Alpina one (I did not mod anything of my car except the multimedia center I added to the MKIV)

Thanks a lot! I love it every day a little more!

What I love more is that big piece of Cast iron that rumbles under the hood every time you feed it (I can say that even if the price of the fuel here in Italy is very very expensive the mpg is fine...almost cheap! )



Do I show how I'm enthusiast even after a year and a half?!?
