Any updates?

I'm waiting on a check from the other board and it's off to the machine shop. I'll post as soon as I know more.

We now have 14 sets sold/spoken for. It looks like a batch of 22 is going to work out after all.

I switched over to these as one of my winter mods. I went from the Baer GT+ setup to the Trackbrackets to rid myself of expensive rotors and significant pad taper.

So far after about 10+ track days this year, the Trackbrackets are doing well. Very minimal pad taper (~10-25% of what the Baers had), and the car has 4 days at Summit Point, 2 at Limerock, 3 at Watkins Glen on the current set of HT-10s and they only seem to be a little less than half worn!---And the car is hauling at Summit....didn't get passed by a single car and passed almost every instructor out there at least once (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (was running in the instructor group). For those who don't know the car, its about 2900 lbs with ~475hp. Wish I had gone right to the trackbrackets years ago instead of spending $440 for replacement rotors and throwing away half worn sets of pads due to the taper from the Baer brackets.

A set for Black01SS per PM.

That puts us at 11 buyers and 4 on the list towards a batch of 22.

I have to withdraw my name from the list the wheels I have do not clear the brakes based on the cut out . also the wheels I have are around a 36 offset so spacers will push out the wheel to far. sorry

What kind of wheels are they?

american racing 200s. They look like the old trans am mustang wheels. I think the guy that orderd them from the shop i went to got the wrong offset. but when i cut out the stencil they touched in the corner were the spokes meet the rim. the wheel is two peices welted togeather.

I would really like to get in on the gp of 17/11's but i just bought a kirkey seat, gw upper control arms, a t2r and am waiting on the strano lowering springs.

I can gladly take you off the list. Or, do you want to grab a set, store them and sell your current wheels for something that clears in the future? It's absolutely your call, but we've been doing these batches when we can, I just can't always promise if/when there will be another run. Let me know and I'll take care of it.

Thanks!

I think at this time im just going to wait. Sorry for the trouble I'm kind of choked. The wheels were the first thing i did to the car. I used to have mustangs and always used cobraR style wheels. I didn't really know all my options and just picked out the ones i like best at my local wheel shop. At the time i was suprised that 9.5's fit without rolling the frenders. If i did it again I'd get ss takeoffs and 17/11 zr1's for pretty much the price I paid for my wheels. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/banghead.gif)

No problem at all.

A set for Brian (Z28streetwimp) per PM.

I PM'd you, but put me down for a set.
Bock

Gotcha. You'll get the set that Boston decided to pass on. So, we've got you covered. Thanks Bock.

We're at 22 sets now (here and on the other board), so I'll start gathering up money soon and we'll get this batch going.

Thanks everyone!

Kevin

I'm here now! Any idea on when the brackets will be available? Just curious as I haven't started gathering up all the other stuff I need yet.

Thanks Kevin...

As soon as I get all the funds gathered up and to the shop, we'll be under way. I'm guessing a few weeks or so at this point (3-5, sorry for the delays, but shop schedules and however long it takes to get the cash from everyone will set the ultimate time frame).

This thread has been quiet. Any updates??

Bock

We're closing out the other GP list on Friday. Speed Specialty was trying to get a batch of 33 together. I'm going to get the shop rolling ASAP after that. Sorry for the delay. It's like the wheel GP, get orders, get orders, get orders, get cash and rock 'n' roll.

Anyone who hasn't already paid, get with me or I'll send PM's to give you payment info.

Thanks!

Kevin, would it be too much trouble to provide a listing on the first post of the paids (like you did for the wheels)? Maybe just the ones from our list, not Speed's customers. It helps everyone know that you got their payment, and encourages the others to get it in gear. TIA

Bock

That was on my "to do" list. I'll get it started.
