Default Wilwood brakes

Sieg,
need to check my info on clamping
as far as weight not sure.. but roughly 3500 lbs now-- was 3710
My buddies and I are talking about getting a set of
scales as we are all messing around with our car setups now
plus I am still reducing weight as time goes on

Greg,
thanks for the feedback.. I run bp 20s both ends of the Pantera
but a lot of braking does come from the rear due to the mid engine
I am finding I can get maybe 4-5 track days on the pads since changing
to the bp 20s... I like the better pad and agree changing them out
more often is not an issue.. also change the fluid at least once a year

I remember you stating you ran the A7 tires... I have run r 6s along
with Kumo v710s for years on the Pantera.. almost always track days as
that car does very little autocrossing... just recently switched to a
Hankook front tire... SCCA spec tire for sedan cars and it really makes
the car stick better

Searching and changing things are not bad if you can get some
feedback and testing time.. need more testing time in the bird

Pantera always comes first.. just finished the clutch last night
so I can go to the Historics next week with the Pantera group
two cars is sometimes a pain figuring out

Bob
