Hey everyone,
So I picked up a brand new 2022 GT. I am very familiar with the platform from a drag racing perspective but not from a road course event perspective.
First thing I am noticing is that heat is a big issue for these cars. Seeing lots of threads on that. Checking Lethal Performaces website and a few others I do not see anything for 2022MY. Is it essentially the same as the 21?
What is the best cooling (motor, Trans etc) in your opinion?
Rim and tire setup: Total rookie here for this car. I am thinking a 11 inch wide rim square setup, maybe 315s? 17, 18, or 19 inch? Not sure. Would love some advice.
Suspension: how does the stock perform? It does not have the magnetic ride control and I do not mind spending the money to pull the stock stuff out and upgrading it. Also open to suggestions.
Brakes: Already have some high temp brake fluideft over from my other cars. I'm sure I can research a good set of pads but what about cooling? Does any company offer some good after market ducting etc? How do the stock Brimbo rotors hold up with proper pads and fluid?
Car is a manual if it helps.
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read through all of this and throw some information my way. I will continue my own researching. Just wanted to make this thread incase someone who has already been there and done it wants to point me in the right direction.
