All good info.....


I have a couple (3 and building a 4th) race cars.... ran Thunderhill this weekend - Wilwood 1" MANUAL master cylinder... Wilwood 6 piston front - 4 piston rears.....

I'm running down into turn one at 135 to 140 mph..... and then have 14 more turns to negotiate after that - lap after lap. Never needed anything other than my foot and I can stand the car on it's nose... I don't even run an aggressive pad. I prefer to buy cheap pads over Spec 37 rotors.

I have the bias set so when I'm threshold braking -- I know I've hit that point when the rears chatter (hop) and the ass is in the air and the nose is digging a hole - that way I know to let up just a bit.... it's a "telltale".
