Do I need the brake ducting for normal driving? I'm not going to bring my car to the track for a while.

I think you can get away without them, most cars have none

Really they don't even help at the track? Then why do they put them on race cars?

No, ferrari products suck ***. I've actually seen advertisements in SCC for carbon discs and pads



Brake ducting was standard issue on all GTU and GTUs cars btw



Also, all t2's without factory foglights have them



You dont need them, and they are too small to work
