My braking was a "little" less strenuous than yours Lee


It went like this:
Porkie: You can take it out if you want but the brakes are cooked
Chip: Ok, thanks
* track session *
Chip : Here's your car, the brakes have cooled down now

lmao!

The locost racing buys all run the standard M16 cortina stuff with 240mm ish solid disks and are convinced that if I go vented ill never keep them hot enough.

A lot of folk with higher powered cars ont eh forum run vents, but normally only 260 etc under 13s.

I really want to stick to 13s if I can, but I reckon due to the uprights im using Ill only get 260x20 vents with 4 pots on the front and Im now worried that wont be enough...

So.... Is Porkie a serial brake abuser, or are they just not big enough?

To be fair, if it was my car or rainbirds car, we would have been saying the same as porkie im sure.

I dont think 260mm will be big enough for you, unless you run really agressive pads, and then the disks wont last 5 minutes.

Hmm, How does stu find his? Ferodo ds3000 ARE aggressive pads lmao, theyre equivalent to 1155s arent they?

I wont get bigger under 13s,and as soon as I move away from those slicks dont come so easily and everything starts to get heavier!
