First off.....yes I have used the search function and have done a lot of research about my issue
Heres the deal, Ive been running 2000 Cobra R brembos on my 99 cobra, I track the car heavily in northern california. The last track day at thunderhill, temps around 90 degrees, I over heated my brakes by the 5th session. This is becoming a reoccurring problem which is way worse in the summer months and I need to find a solution.
My question, which route should I take to move above the 00r brembos? I really want 14" brakes with floating rotors but can't afford to payout the high dollar amount for a top of the line kit. I know FTBR sells a great 14" kit with F50 calipers which I have been eyeing, vintage-venom is out of buisness......other then the wilwood 14" kit I don't see any other option.
Do you think a gran turismo 13" kit with a brake cooling duct would hold up to the hot northern CA summer track days or would a 14" kit like FTBR be a better option?
So which one is it? FTBR 14" kit, Wilwood 6r Superlite 14" kit or a Brembo GT 13" kit with a brake cooling kit?
Looking for answers from guys who track their car, I do not car about looks, I don't need suggestions on tire options, I just want a setup that will not give me issues after multiple heavy track sessions.
Thank you!
