Driving On Race Tracks
Before driving on a track using a racing style, it is
necessary to:
Attend a race track driving course.
Check all liquid levels in the engine
compartment.
Have the car inspected at an authorized
dealer.
Remember that the car was not designed to be
driven exclusively on the race track and that this
use increases stress and component wear.
NOTE:
Quadrifoglio front brakes are equipped with NAO
type pads (Non-Asbestos Organic). These pads
are NOT suitable for high thermal loads (for
example track use). If you want to use vehicle on
a track it is recommended to use the optional
CCM Brakes (Carbon Ceramic Brake disc).
Preheating The Carbon Ceramic Material Brake
Discs (If Equipped)
The brake discs must be warmed up to make
them fully efficient. You are advised to perform
the following procedure to achieve optimal
efficiency:
Brake nine times from 80 mph to 18 mph
(130 km/h to 30 km/h) with deceleration
equal to 0.7g (the longitudinal acceleration
value is shown on the instrument panel display
by setting RACE mode and selecting the
“Performance” page) with 20 second intervals
between brake applications; keep the car at a
speed comprised between 37 mph and
62 mph (60 km/h and 100 km/h) and do not
brake for 4 minutes to allow the brakes to cool
down.
Brake three times from 124 mph to 18 mph
(200 km/h to 30 km/h) with deceleration
equal to 1.1g (ABS operation) with 30 second
intervals between brake applications; keep the
car at a speed comprised between 37 mph
and 62 mph (60 km/h and 100 km/h) and do
not brake for 5 minutes to allow the brakes to
cool down.
