This "no brakes" heresy means the car is not going that fast to begin with... (or the car is not capable of entry speeds to require it.)

Dean in the LS miata vs Bill in the Vette......a typical lap in T8 for Dean is turn in a 110mph...drop to 105mph at apex, then accelerate out....not too shabby...

nice to see Wardlow's old vet out there. I would say i have a lot of video of this car, both in front and behind! . last i heard, his motor was putting out 370hp going up to 420rwhp with the cams, but Bill pulled the engine to make ST2 NASA at 370rwhp again? should have jjust pulled the cams.

anway, hope to see either one of these cars in a race sometime this season!

the mazda with the v8 grunt is a crack up!
