F55 S HDPE/Track
Hope to get more insight!
I’ve been trying to research HDPE/Tracked F55 S’s.
I have an 18’ F55 S 6mt with the JCW tuner kit and BMS clutch stop as the only “mods” so far. Wheels are currently Borbet Type Y 17x7’s.
I have the sport package with the DDC as well. I don’t know if that is a negative factor. There’s isn’t much info about those systems I can find, like even the weight compared to regular suspension offerings.
I understand pads and tires would be the biggest factor along with rear sway bar (and chassis brace maybe).
-Pads would probably go with Yellow stuff or the Carbotech XP10’s (front) and XP8’s (rear).
-RSB between 22-25mm bar?
- Tires probably Indy 500’s or Super sports.
I guess my biggest question is, is it worth it in the F55 S’s? If so any other supporting mods? (Engine mounts, etc.)
I’d like to setup for Spring/Summer. Obviously there’s the harness setup which I’ve started looking into.
If I just need to get another sport bike again and track that way, then so be it.
Thank you!

I decided to try it myself - I threw in a little bit, activated the bonus, and the Aztec slot almost immediately gave a decent multiplier and freespins. I'm glad that I had time to make a screenshot of the skid. I withdrew the money to my bank account through the system supported in Australia - everything worked.

It's no sport bike, but I think you'll have a great time tracking your F55. I don't have personal experience with those pads or tires, but I would recommend going with the heavier sway bar. I went with the 22mm, but I think it is still too soft. One absolutely essential piece of track equipment that no one ever mentions is painters tape to cover the camera on the windshield. It stops the collision avoidance from going off and scaring the hell out of you as you're in the braking zone following someone into a curve. It happened to me and I nearly crapped in the seat.
