I'm sure manual brakes work great on a lighter car, all the race cars I've ever been around have manual brakes and work great... BUT... those are light cars. That 69 Chevelle that Jody and I drove on Power Tour a few years ago had manual brakes. It was a complete Wilwood system with the correct MC bore size... and they sucked. They came around slightly after the 1500 miles we put on it, but they never inspired confidence. Because of that experience, I will never have manual brakes on a street car.
