The brakes were the most impressive things. Huge German calipers on big brackets surrounding a two piece disk. Massive and coming our way soon for
AP type money apparenly.

They were'nt being used though, unless they were taking it easy as the cars still being developed, I did expect it to be pushed a little more.

i spoke to the P.S. boys - they had only finished building it the day before so had turned everything down a few notches to break it in - expect a lot more to come.

It was looking great through Quarry mind..

Lap 1 was 1.17 then a 1.23.99 for the second lap. Sadly, missed the third. Was very impressed with the brake set up. Allegedly, it will be available as a kit!!!!

The only thing I've been in that even comes close to a drag racing Dodge charger I piloted many years ago.
That thing has some SERIOUS "urge"
