Holy **** did you see how bad he was pre-loading the turbo when he made a few of those runs?? His brake pads were Glowing bad!! I've seen them get hot but not that hot, I think he was over doing it on the pre-load.
That is a sweet little monster of a car though!!

Yup, saw that spark too. I think his brakes had to of been sticking because you usually see that kind heat from the brakes under extreme and excessive conditions(like closed circuit racing).

I assume pre-loading is braking and driving at the same time to build PSI before you launch at a roll? That was a beastly car though.

Yup, pre-loading or brake boosting, either or. I usually see tuner cars doing it. It's hard on the brakes and axles but it get's rid of pretty much any turbo lag. I've found it really hard to control though, trying to maintain x mph while feathering the brake's and overpower them proves to be difficult.
