    *vid* Brake tech discussion

    I found this cool vid about brake tech in a interview with "The Brake Man" 4 parts, about 30mins combined.. very intresting info. tho he is kinda trying to sell his product (which isnt avaliable to rollas:p )
    http://videos.hspn.com/?videoid=12

    Part 1 discusses directional vained rotors and how cross drilled is obsolete.
    Part 2 discusses pad compounds and rotating unsprung weight
    Part 3 discusses brake fade & force
    Part 4 racing brake fluids

    My favorite quote "If you have a brake pad that dosent dust, you have a brake pad that dosent work..."

    i like his repeated use of the words coefficient of friction, modulate, and rate of acceleration. good articles though. i think i've learned too much
