Uses a 360 degree caliper and pads that cover 80% of the rotor. Cool!

Site is a little slow though.

Wow, must be fun to do brake jobs on...LOL

Very innovative, are they gearing it toward sports cars are trucks?? It looks like an 8 bolt Dana 60 hub LOL

So much for Big Reds!

Something tells me that a 951 w/ those brakes will be severely overbraked.

So much for heat dissipation - I would NOT want to perform maint. on that monster!

Campeck

site comes across as if its for big trucks..you know..air powered brakes...8 lugs..lol

When was the last time you rearended a semi because he stopped too quickly?

i dont think it would work well in a track car, too heavy and no cooling

Actually... they have a 911 Turbo as a test car in the Motorola Cup. Saw a bit about it on the Discovery Channel and the show How It's Made. Car raced in the series and did well. Trying to find it.

Heavy duty applications are what they are producing.

there is nothing new there.. it is just a brute force approach. I have seen racecars with twin caliper setups. It actually did very little if anything to improve braking, and ruined the cooling of the brakes.

Part of their concept is that the rotors won't heat as much due to the larger friction surface and less required clamping force.
