Figuring 3,500 a caliper, and probably 1000 for a car set of pads, and 500 a rotor...yeah I could see how it could add up real quickly....not including masters, pedals, lines and fittings. PFC calipers http://www.hrpworld.com/index.cfm?form_cat...action=category Alcon http://www.hrpworld.com/index.cfm?form_cat...action=category http://www.hrpworld.com/index.cfm?form_cat...action=category Brembo http://www.hrpworld.com/index.cfm?form_cat...action=category Not sure which model of caliper they run....probably similar to the Alcon TA6 or Brembo GT+

Those are thick pads on those cars. I had no idea they were that thick, even after half a race. I did notice his rotors weren't drilled though.
