Guys, please post up info on the car once you get it and track it. I tend to be a late adapter on most cars so I'd love more info on the car before I pull the trigger.

I know you have to pay to play, but I just got a quote of $18k for rotors and pads from two dealers for the ACR. Makes $3k for the GT4 seem like a bargain.

pretty damn impressive to keep up with Ralph - kind of makes the ACR look bad, as you had a pax, too.

Default Brake HELP!!!!

Holy cow? As I draw closer to receiving this beast, I just learned to replace rotors is going to cost at least $4000 a corner? Then, the pads themselves are going to be about $1500.

C'mon, give me a stupid brake/break?!

So, first thing I'm doing is to swap out these ceramics to steel. Are there any guys out there that know who or what company I might be able to talk to?

I've tried posting on the Viper forums, but have had zero luck there. Traffic on these Viper forums are slim to none. Even then, the only valuable feedback came from you fellow RL'sters that were posting there anyway.

HELP!!!

I would contact the big names such as Stop Tech, RacingBrake, and AP, etc.....they must have some ideas....those prices are nuts....I replaced the breaks on my GTR with Stop Tech....a $9K quote was more like $4K aftermarket.....

Yes, We can help.

See our complete brake offer for Viper.
http://www.racingbrake.com/category-s/7130.htm

2016 ACR Extreme comes with CCM (390/360) rotors, we can make CCM or iron replacement.

RB offers iron conversion for these factory CCM:
Aston Martin DBS
Ferrari F430/F458
Porsche 996/997/991 GT3
Chevy ZR1
Camaro Z28
Mercedes GTS
We also offer CCM rotors built with ZR1 or ST discs for replacement or upgrade (typically for Nissan GTR) and other cars do not have CCM options.

Here is an in depth review of how RB replacement rotor rings performed vs. OE on ACR/ACR-X.

Yes--I know a dealer that will sell at a $1K over invoice. PM me and I'll give you the info if you're going to order one!
