Put it this way Daz, if Team Prawn Racing ever goes global, you'd definitely be head hunted for the role as Chief of PR and advertising
Looking good man.
You should consider changing the name of your thread to
" the vaughan supremacy"
Hahaha
Or better still "The Prawn Supremacy".
I love how you go to all the trouble of building a custom back plate and welding on connectors for the pipe work etc and then repair the holes in the old pipework with insulation tape
dude the pads you have what is the temps rated from and to?
with all that cooling i would think on the short stuff the brakes would not get up to operating temp?
It's driven like it's on track, everywhere.
I absolutely don't think this will ever be an issue on a full size track Miggles, all the recent cooling additions wern't done because I was bored they were done because we push very hard, and the brakes run VERY hot, beyond their ideal temperature range.
By adding cooling, you always have the option to partially block or remove part of it to increase temps to the desired range. Without it, you have no choice but to run too hot with no way of addressing the issue. For road use and short stuff like sprinting I can just block off the inlets with race tape (duct tape)
the F4R's are apparently 'fade resistant' to 1000 degrees!
makes sense
but like for example my previous pads were rated from 300' to 900' and when we did the short hill climb i had to brake very early so was just asking
Al Wouldnt you earn more money charging people to get out!!!
HA HA it has been known that the odd person wished the car was not so fast. Apart from all else, if you are not used to it IT'S the braking that is the big surprise.
Im afraid im on that list.
I think a rear diffuser would set the back of perfectly cars amazing mate
Don't worry Daz, Dad is on that exact same list too
''Don't you think you should slow down a bit now son?''
''NO''
Getting close now! car is all ready, cleaned and good to go and tucked away in the garage where the birds can't crap on it
Spare wheels and tools are all packed and ready to load up on Sunday afternoon, then we're off for some more of this!
What a difference a couple of years makes.
Looks quick! Rob said you had a play with the Evo and said it was neck and neck. I've been in his Evo and if yours is as quick as that it must be uber. I said Rob should fit a HTA3582
