Definitely tyres. There is nothing wrong with the jag brakes except they are a bit heavy. I have jag front and territory disks on the rear, vented\slotted front disks, yellow stuff pads, and stainless pistons in the jag brakes which are supposed to help with fade. You do have to jump on them, however at the time my engineer said he had only tested one GT40 with a big brake setup that pulled up quicker. That included another CR on the same day with the CR "big brake kit".



Going from the KU31 to the KU36 made about 2-3 secs difference around Wakefield. Ku36 are getting had to find I think as they are out of production but an equivalent tyre like the Nitto NT05 or Falken RT615K should make a big difference.
