What’s with the Brake fetish lately?

Yes another post about going slower… We’re still on the brake theme this week. After determining at the June track days that our calipers needed a rebuild (sticking pistons) we started looking around for various brake caliper / rotor options for the 996. If we were going to be tearing the brakes all off then…

Well, ‘one’ is never really done optimizing the performance of ‘ones’ sports car are they? But for now we have finally got the new brake calipers and rotors installed. No giant Brembo kits here, just a rebuild of the already excellent (Brembo made) Porsche 996 calipers. We’ll abuse these for the remainder of this season…
