Golf GTi Championship picks Tarox F2000 as control brake disc

Tarox F2000 brake discs have been made available to the Golf GTi Championship, a staple on the MSVR calendar. Competitors can choose to run an OEM style ‘smooth’ disc, or benefit from the improved cooling and pad-facing ability of the Tarox F2000 control option; the choice is left up to the teams. For 2013, competitors can also spec up to the larger 256mm set-up from the later GTi models. A combination, when fitted with a suitably aggressive pad and F2000 disc, that should see lap times falling amongst the quicker cars.

Commenting on the move, Tarox UK manager Nick Counsell said: “Being heavily involved in the VAG tuning market, this is the perfect shop window for the benefits of our products. The F2000 is the perfect disc for production class racing, and in conjunction with the reg changes to allow larger discs and callipers, we should see the really quick drivers being able to shave a few tenths off in the braking zone, thanks to greater levels of retardation. With the driver line-up promised this year, I think we might even see some lap records!”

F2000 discs are one upgrade in a range of Tarox products for VW that includes the Sport Japan, G88, OEM style and numerous ‘Big Brake’ options.
