That's with my Canon 49D and I think my Canon 10-22 wide angle lens. I only shoot with three.. the wide, a 28-135 IS lens and my mac daddy 70-200 IS 2.8f lens.

Oh, and that's on a tripod with a longer exposure.

What do you want to know?

How do they compare to the older brakes you had ?

Sort of unfair to compare.. the Wilwoods were great.. these should be better due to the larger rotor but you can get that with the Wilwoods.

I will say this.

Pro of Wilwoods = brige bolts for easy pad swaps
Pro of Baers = C5/C6 pads you can find anywhere

The parts in the kit are very nice and the machining is beautiful. So far I like them. I think either company makes a quality piece.

I will say we measured and the Baer brakes have more piston area, but both have rear brakes that are too small in my opinion. I would like them to be 50/50 and then adjust the backs down with the prop valve. Right now I have the backs turned to full. (I think right now the Baers are 60/40 in terms of bias (based on piston area).

No, just drove to the track.. like any hi-po pad they seem a bit dusty but no noise so far.

I have to drive 200 miles on them Friday to a TV Interview so I will let you know. After Optima I will swap to the street pads provided by Baer.

Earlier in the year we installed the Pafdt solid bearings (control arms), the ZR1 bearing hubs, the Raceseng billet upright, and the upgraded ball joints. I wouldn't imagine I have any deflection now.

What we did earlier in the year:
