I wonder if the Weight Savings of the aluminium calipers / rotors would make up for the fact that the discs would drag somewhat and you can adjust the Drums for almost no drag???  |

| Clamping power with disc is not as good cold as drums.

The rules state 150+ for a Chute.. Also Mark would not like the extra weight that a chute, brakets, cables add to the car...

Plus it would probably split the car in half when he deployed it... I still like discs.

Lou, you are right! Nothing sensible about this guy. Total nut-job freak! He needs keyboarding lessons so we can read more of his freakadelic posts! I almost said typing lessons but that would have dated me. Mr. Mark keep it comin'!
