Joined the exotic drive with my friend's R8 over this weekend. Tried to hand recording whenever there was a steady traffic, but still very shaky, take some Advil if need to. The Ferrari guys were surprised that they couldn't pull away from me, on twisty that is, but also complimented my exhaust.

Just remember the Nürburgring lap times both 7:56 for the upgraded 360 CS and NSX-R and for a F430F1 is 7:55

So in a regular street driving non race format and just some twisty roads, there is about equal

Glad to see you getting your car out there and enjoying it.

Good info.....I will definitely need to upgrade my brakes or at least get the SST brake lines before going back out there with them.
 
why? were they fading? if so I would look into some air deflectors and some different pads. Stainless steel lines wont really make your brakes better.
 
I have racing pads and 110 lbs shaved off. You have to drive the nsx aggressive enough to notice the lack of performance of those tiny rotors. I will need the SST brake lines anyway when I go BBK.

I hate reading this nonsense.

My last NSX had the full Comptech BBK ($15K) front and rear and my new one is stock brakes with AEM pads/slotted rottors.

I feel like I'm going to crash everytime I step on the brake. A BBK is soooo worth it on this car.
