For the racers, here is the answer to your braking problems. Tar-ox 10 piston front brakes with 318mm rotors, and rear 323mm rotors for the O.E. calipers. We just got this kit, installing it now. Will keep you posted on the performance. We have used this set up on our BMW project car, and have sold many kits for BMW. The mini kit should be just as impressive.

Oh I can just see Andy switching disks and calipers every week

still practice makes perfect eh Mr W

Wouldn't mind if they were allowed next year though. Apart from the lack of my MINI's performance

the brakes are the only thing that really let the side down IMO.

As for changing discs & calipers myself - I was quite pleased with my efforts at cable-tying some rollcage padding on tonight, but that's about as far as it goes. "A man's gotta know his limitations" as a mayor somewhere once said
