Q: Why do Model S Plaid brakes need cooling ducts for track use?
The front brakes do the vast majority of the work slowing a heavy, powerful EV, and heat is what makes them fade. This carbon fiber duct kit was developed over more than a year of testing, including Pikes Peak and multiple EV track-record runs, to feed those front brakes cool air under heavy use. Keeping rotor and caliper temperatures down is how you hold pedal feel and stopping power through a hard session.
