I remember seeing Andy F's drag brakes a couple of years back and they were smaller than those. No use for track work obviously.

i remember reading andy f saying the same about his brakes. its a drag car and it only goes in a straight line and only needs to stop at the end of a run and the brakes are fine for that.

Brakes need to be tiny so small wheels will fit as well.

Just needs a deck chair bolting to the bonnet and Andy's got a race.....lol....

Wonder in Alyn did some work for this car ?

Cant remember if it was either Alyn (ASPerformance) or Andy F (when I got car remapped) who said there were a few similar projects.

Yes Andy said they were small brakes - but for time attack more than good enough and yes to save weight.
