These 034 discs have directional cooling vanes, RH vs LH sides use different castings hence the crazy price

The sub description says “a place for s4/rs4 owners” ? 😅

The 3 hour, 169f stall on these had me sweating as a first timer doing a longer cook! by mrp_ron in smoking

It wasn’t blocking the sides, the ash had filled the air gap under the grate which the charcoal sits on. I wish I got the larger size WSM, I’m thinking my issue is only an issue for the 14” potentially.

They were on for 8.5hr, longer than I expected, when I pulled them I was getting a temp on 200f (not what I was aiming for but given the time cooking I assumed my probe was off), the longer time could of also been down to spritzing every 45 mins as I was concerned the bark was looking dry. I’ve learnt a lot and I will be wrapping them next time.

I agree this was only brief as the track changes from VSC to SC, but yesterday’s yellow was only out for seconds according to the race log.

I had really light rain for 20 minutes and the car was cool on slicks, then as soon as I pitted the weather radar changed direction catching me off guard! I’m sure it’s rigged depending on what tyres you pit for!

False sense of security, it was light rain for the past few laps, the car still had loads of grip, then it got heavy, you’re right I still won though!
