You may not understand how "passionate" Pete is about his brakes... He's even got Speedster thinking about a set.

If and when I decide to do the West Texas Open Road Race, I'll most assuredly be looking for upgraded brakes...

Until then, I'll have braided hoses coutesy of Pete, and I may put some better pads on...

But I'm not road racing the car so the brakes have lots of time to cool off after every use...

Yes. 'The Talk' at the PRI show. Use these brakes or die... We know Pete just wants the best for us.
