They are very definitely the steel brakes, I can pick the CCM brakes vs the 380 mm steel front brakes (which your fronts are) vs the 355 mm base model brakes from several miles away! It's just that your calipers have been painted yellow (same as I have done on mine) when the steel brake calipers never came in yellow from the factory while the CCM brake calipers always came in yellow. Many a young player has been fooled into thinking the brakes are CCM just coz the calipers are yellow!
Edit - forgot to add - the tyre goo is only for a (very) temporary repair, enough to maybe get you to a shop to buy a new tyre, as you will need a new tyre after using it because it destroys the tyre even if all it had was a small/simple nail/screw hole in the middle of the tread.
For a simple nail/screw hole puncture a much better solution is to use a tyre plug kit such as this one from Stop and Go: https://www.ebay.com/itm/17502925009...3ABFBM7K2zieZi
I have that exact kit and have used it twice now with great results, both times several years ago. I never bothered to get a "proper" repair done and the tyre is still going strong.

 

After quite a bit of practice, I'm getting better and getting in the car. Getting out is all that difficult, for some reason.

My next problem is the floor. It seems to have a dip in the middle. I wear size 13 (US) shoes, so my foot fits in there kind of diagonal (as it is with all cars I drive), and there is a dip in the floor in the middle where my heel slides down into. I have the rubber floor mats installed because it has been raining, and they are extra slippery when my shoes are wet. I wish the floor was flat.

Is there a way to turn of traction control completely? The two modes seem to be traction control on, and traction control race mode. I was testing the limits of the car yesterday with it in race mode while the road was wet and I can tell that it still is on a little bit. It's not a huge deal, but I was just curious if it ever went completely off.
