Wow, I'd not seen the brakes up close before, at least not until those on PJ Jones car exploded. 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. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

QUOTE (beuke23 @ Aug 14 2005, 23:00) Somewher in the middle, you can see those big calipers and pads up close. Glen 2002 album1 At the very end, shots of Boris Said's ride: Glen 2002 album2 Wish my pads were that thick to start! Nice shots of the brakes! Amazing that they run 3 ducts to the front brakes, and 1 to the rear. I guess if we were going braking from 175-180mph entering the bus stop, we would need SERIOUS brakes too! |
