Le Mans 2003

[TM]

I wonder if the guy tracking his Cayenne turbo had put in
proper racing pads, high temp brake fluid and properly ducted
his brake rotors.

They are 6 piston front and 4 piston rear on the turbo model but
remember that this thing is over 5,000lbs! and after talking to a guy
that was racing a turbo in one lap of america at the CMP track here in
SC he says they are not nearly big enough and that he was getting really
bad brake fade after only a few laps.

Aren't they 8-piston?  Or is that just the Cayenne S?
I saw an S yesterday, and they take 1st place for the
biggest f'n brakes I've seen on a street car/truck.
