Ok, most of our members here know that I build the trackbrackets C5 conversion brackets for 4th gen F-bodies. This kit was originally the Bob Bishop conversion kit, but I bought the rights from Bob (who is no longer affiliated with this product) and am building them to his standards at the same shop that perfected this manufacturing process. I would like to do a batch of either 11 or 22 sets. I'll make some phone calls to get a firm price on this batch (I have to verify the cost of aluminum). We sold the last batch for $279 on the GP. I'll post a firm price as soon as I get it. But it should be close to the last batch.
If you're interested, please post in this thread. Once we get enough buyers lined up, I'll start collecting money and hope to deliver them within 6 weeks (depending on my shop schedule) from that time. Thanks! Kevin The last batch was priced like this: If we sell 11 sets = $279 per set (Plus shipping) If we sell 22 sets = $269 per set (Plus shipping) I get a slight discount for a larger order and I'll pass the savings along. I'll call and get an update to verify the prices and post when it's final. I'm sure it will be close. Paid: Robz71lm7 CCCBock derek kennedy BLK01SS Brian Buell Dexter |

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. |
