[DMCForum] Re: brake upgrades.

["Elvis Nocita" <elvisnocita@xxxxxx>]

John, I have been on the Nürburgring twice with that car.
Once with original brakes and once with the ventilated larger
rotors and the larger calipers of a Ford Taunus.

What do you wanna hear ?
Brakes and suspension suck big time !
I don't know if all the cars are like this, but most of the other
owners on the track didn't push the gas like I did.

My old Opel Kadett, lowered with KONI shocks handled much better,
I guess because it didn't have a rear mounted engine where you always
have to worry to end like a dart - heavier side first....
