Guidelines For Track Use
NOTE:
Because of the extreme conditions encoun-
tered during track use, any damage or wear
associated with track use is not covered by
warranty.
•
If your SRT vehicle is equipped with Drive
Modes they will alter the vehicle’s perfor-
mance in various driving situations. It is rec-
ommended that your vehicle operates in
SPORT or TRACK modes during the track
event.
•
Prior to each track event/day, verify all fluids
are at the correct levels. Refer to “Fluid
Capactites” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle” for
further information.
•
Prior to each track event, verify the front and
rear brake pads have more than ½ pad
thickness remaining. If the brake pads re-
quire changing, please burnish prior to track
outing at full pace.
•
At the conclusion of each track event, it is
recommended that a brake bleed procedure
is performed to maintain the pedal feel and
stopping capability of your Brembo High Per-
formance brake system.
•
It is recommended that each track outing
should end with a minimum of 1 cool down
lap using minimal braking.
•
If equipped with a removable lower front
fascia grille, it is recommended to remove it
for track use during warm/hot weather to
improve cooling airflow to critical powertrain
and cooling system components.
•
All SRT vehicles are track tested for 24 hours
of endurance, however, it is recommended
that suspension system, brake system, prop
shaft, and ½ shaft boots should be checked
for wear or damage after every track event.
•
Track usage results in increased operating
temperatures of the engine, transmission,
clutch – if equipped, driveline and brake
system. This may affect noise (NVH) coun-
termeasures designed into your vehicle. New
components may need to be installed to
return the system to the original NVH
performance.
•
Tire pressure:
•
40psi hot, recommend 32psi front, 30psi
rear cold
NOTE:
It is recommended that you target 40psi Hot
Tire Pressure at the conclusion of each track
session. Starting at 32psi Front & 30psi Rear
Cold and adjusting based on ambient &
track conditions is recommended. Tire pres-
sure can be monitored via the Driver Infor-
mation Display (DID) and can assist with
adjustments.
