Message It's not "Real Gold", its Gold Reflective Film. That Subi has run high 8.xx in the 1/4 mile. It breaks often, but it can be very fast as well.

The Gold Reflective Film is an aerospace material capable of reflecting 78% of all radiant heat with continuous operating temperatures of 450 degrees centigrade. The material is metalized polyamide polymer laminated glass cloth with a high temperature pressure sensitive adhesive. The film is lightweight at only 5oz per square yard, and is easy to apply and remove. Typical applications include; but are not limited to, engine covers, side pods, suspension, under trays/floors, seat bottoms, fire walls and bulkheads. The minimum air gap to heat source is just 1mm.
Gold Reflective Film forms to any shape, is far more reflective with greater weight saving and is preferred over aluminized cloth and waffle board.
CONSTRUCTION:
# Metallized polyimide film laminated to glass cloth with high temperature acrylic adhesive protected by a release liner.
FEATURES:
# Excellent heat reflective characteristics and is easy to install.
# Withstands 675°F of radiant heat for a minimum of 8 hours
APPLICATION:
# Heat reflective material used in the auto racing industry.
Adhesive residue removal: Any adhesive residue remaining after removal of Gold Racing Tape can be dissolved using MEK, toluene or gasoline
