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)

I swear if they ran 1/2 road courses I'd be addicted to NASCAR again.
It's 3400 lb minimum weight and that includes the driver. IRL of course doesn't include the driver and has raised plenty of controversy. Kinda of funny they do it with heavy cars and not lighter ones. |
