The car I ordered won't even start production until September. The CCB pushed production from May to September.

If I can get a M3/M4 before track seasons ends, you'll see me out there

Have a good one!

Agreed... it is rare that stock brakes on any car are up to frequent track duty. The pads are generally high performance street pads mainly. The rotors and calipers I would bet are OK for moderate track use once the pads and fluid are changed.
