...Personally, I like to be able to stop. I'm not worried about going fast, got the gearing, got the horsepower, it WILL get there. To be able to de-accelerate at 1.2 g without locking them up, now that is impressive. Can't wait to hear about your experiences with the new rubber.
Agreed, too many people forget about woe. The beefed up/tuneable suspension is allowing for good side G's too.
FYI: you probably know, but for others, the large Brembo 4-piston fronts have pads have a coefficient of friction at around 0.50 while to balance it all, the smaller rears needed Ferodo DS3000 pads that have a 0.62 coefficient of friction. Needless to say, i get A LOT of brake dust and chew through rotors, but DAMN she can stop and modulation/feel is VERY good.
By the way Steve, your video forced me to add your name to the list of people who will never drive my car.

Stop by NHIS (Louden, NH) on Thursday morning from 8 to 12pm, April 27. Be glad to take you on a few laps around the track. Bring helmet if you have one and wear a minimum of longsleeve shit and long pants (cotton please, NO poly/plastic).
Oh, and make sure you have flushed your brake fluid with Motul 600 for me will ya
