But how much newer are Evo's etc. Things move quickly, in their day the Cossie brakes were pretty good. In their days standard S1 brakes were deemed ok now most people consider them to be utter bollocks

I don't suppose Ford were expecting some loon to be running one of their cars at 200mph. Think it would be pretty safe during the build the thought of better brakes cropped up a few times fairly high up the jobs to do list.

I always thought the system on the Cossie was pretty good from experience. Don't know many people that have had problems with it

But the ABS on RST's is utter bollocks so removing it is usually a very good idea. I don't think Christians brakes are exactly stock with just the ABS lopped off
