Honestly, unless you are doing some SERIOUS track work, Big Reds really are overkill for these cars. I mean, if you are doing lap after lap, with extremely hard braking, then maybe the larger rotors/calipers and their ability to dissapate the heat would come into play. Our cars just aren't as heavy as the cars that the Big Reds are designed for.

I have S4 calipers on a 2500lb car and I think that even they are overkill, honestly. If I had it to do all over again, I would probably stick with the stock 951 calipers.

Just my 2 cents from another perspective.
