So now we know we all need brakes after driving at MMP so...
Elf and I have been on the phone talking brakes alot to just quite a few people. What we have come up with is pretty much the Alcon 328mm (to fit stock 17" wheels) is THE best track setup. StopTechs would be adequate but don't have the details that make others (Alcon, Brembo, AP) true racing brake setups. Things like correct mounting of the rotor to the aluminum hat and having the brake pads not ride on the surface of the rotor when the brakes are not applied (helps keep them cool!).

Another option is the Alcon replacement rotor with Corbotech pads. The 2-peice, directional vane rotor would definitly help with cooling and not warping but we would still be stock caliper which weighs quite a bit.

Anyway, I will see what kind of multiple kit discount can be had and let you all know.
I will also be looking into the rear kit just because it is so cool.

Let me know your thoughts on it.

Mark. Do you have one of those velcro closure wallets. That may be causing the itch too.

CPSC, Raymond Geddes & Co. Inc. Announce Recall of Velcro Wallets
WASHINGTON, D.C.- In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Raymond Geddes & Co. Inc., of Baltimore, Md., is voluntarily recalling about 55,000 children's Velcro wallets. The zipper pull in the wallet contains lead, which can present a risk of lead poisoning to young children.

The wallets are 3.5 by 5 inches when closed and have a Velcro closing flap. They come in various solid colors on the outside of the wallet and multiple colors on the inside. They have black trim around the edges and between the pockets. The wallet contains five pockets, one of which contains a zipper. The backing on the largest pocket is yellow. Each wallet contains a tag that states "MADE IN CHINA."
Toy stores nationwide sold these wallets from August 1998 through April 2001 for about $1.
Consumers should immediately take these wallets away from children, and return the wallets to the store where purchased for a refund. For more information, call Raymond Geddes & Co. at (800) 533-6273 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's web site at www.raymondgeddes.com.

Small update with some more techie stuff...
The difference between the 6 and 4 pot calipers is the 6 pot will have more pedal travel but have better wear characteristics. The 4 pot will have a very stock like feel but might go through pads a tiny bit more.
The rear break kit will put a little bit more bias to the rear which is good for trail braking and thats the way the Stasis race cars are.
I will probably be going with the 4 pot front and the rear brake kit someday. I also have a feeling there are going to be quite a few good used SS brake line kits going up for sale soon
I will get more info later today as well as pricing So let me know roughly what you guys are interested in.
