Just so you know, Mason likes to have his cars driven!! This is from Goodwood Festival. How's this for wise investing... He purchased this car in 1977 for app $50,000. Last edited by losiking1; 02-26-2013 at 08:53 PM. |

Is it just me or does that orange camaro a few posts up have drum brakes on the front? |

| Re: Cool Pictures I thought that's what added to the picture. The fact that the rising sun seems to be vertex of the image and everything else appears to be speeding toward or away from it... Yeah, I noticed that too and was wondering about them... |

| Re: Cool Pictures Nothing wrong with drum brakes.A properly setup drum system will stop just as good if not better than Disks.They will just not do it repetitively.With that said on a drag car I would have dumped them off the front because of weight not because they will not stop.

drums actually have more stopping surface and stopping power for the same size. Meaning if you want a 15" wheel, you will have more braking with drums. On the flip side, they heat up and fade faster. They are also harder and more expensive to change. Going in a straight line with a chute to do most of the braking, why spend the money on disc.
