Front brake upgrade on MK2 Fabia 1.6 TDI
How do you maintain your speed going down a hill in snow, I’ll give you a clue, you don’t use the brakes. @e-Roottoot imagine if we brought xds into it that will really confuse them.

I never even managed to cook the brakes once doing super lap Scotland, god knows now many track days and top speed runs at elvington 😂

Front brake upgrade on MK2 Fabia 1.6 TDI
And Skoda spent how many millions in research and development into developing the braking system? I doubt they just go to a parts room find a set and go that’ll do like most folk that do “big brake” upgrades.

Fabia MK2 VRS 'The Red Baron'
Firstly in your first sentence it’s you’re not your and not sure why I’d be jealous of a slow car using built to a sub par and dangerous standard. Also good to see you’re admitting you’d only go to a drag strip because you now accept you’ll struggle round a track due to again your sub par knowledge on track driving, dynamics and basic physics. Didn’t actually ask darkside for any specific power 😂 heck I’d have been happy with 210bhp but at least I’ve got the balls to push things to the limit 🤷🏻♂️

Fabia MK2 VRS 'The Red Baron'
Haha it’s had 1 clutch due to it failing. Other one we just changed it as the gearbox was out to fit the diff but you’d know that wouldn’t you. maybe you should tell that to greddy then haha. you mean all you’ve did is fit stuff. 🤷🏻♂️ It’s plainly obvious you don’t know about handling or dynamics but don’t worry few of us are having a good laugh at this. I’ll have my ha ha meme prepared when you fire it backwards at druids at oulton when your mismatched tyres.

Fabia MK2 VRS 'The Red Baron'
Someone jealous haha when you coming on track to show us how it’s done? all I’ve learned from you is you don’t seem to know much. Wether it’s ether getting a 2 bar boost control to work on a 2.4 bar of boost engine set up like you claimed ( which it won’t) and also a lack of understanding of basic physics, chassis dynamics and handling. but then again I’ve only came away with several trophies in my diesel fabia from motorsport events over the years including a first......

Had a little trip down to Donington Park with Darkside last week to check out their new project cars and go out on track with them On the drive back at low speed braking heard a grinding noise from the back with low speed braking turns out the pads and discs now needed a change..... Less than a year and 15k miles on these. Also a little christmas eve drive out with a friend in his ibiza cupra
