Description
In this video, we finally tackle one of the biggest weak points on the car, the brakes. After pushing the S1 hard on track, it was clear the stock setup just wasn’t cutting it anymore. So we’ve gone all in on a proper big brake upgrade hoping the difference is exactly what we're looking for…
Once installed, we head straight back to the track to put everything to the test and a proper shakedown to see if this upgrade delivers where it matters most.
But that’s not all.
After putting the car through its paces, we start to question something bigger about the build. Is the current setup really the best direction for the car? Or is it finally time to consider a more drastic change…
This one takes an unexpected turn, and it might just change the future of the S1 build.
Make sure to like, comment, and subscribe to follow the journey, this build is far from finished.
