But, would the difference in weight of the vehicles be a factor? I mean Corvette to Camaro difference. Would, or should I say ~ how soon ~, the brakes from a Corvette on a Camaro fade any quicker? I'm going to say yes, but would like to know.

I, too, have seen the advantages of an even bigger set up from the CTS-V! Felt like the air was being pulled out of my chest!

Brakes from a car of similar or greater weight

Brakes from a great car that is MUCH lighter to a heavier car
