I had a Camaro, one of nearly 2 dozen I've owned, nearly all of which I've driven, and I was blasting down a favorite canyon early one sunday morning.
It was my first spirited run in this car, but the brakes were good in daily driving.
This one has open-face wheels, and even so, by the bottom of the canyon my brakes were about as good as Fred Flintstone's feet. With the e-brake and manually downshifting ( it was an automatic ) I got stopped safely, before wasting a boring hour watching glowing orange front rotors cool down.
Ever since then, I've been putting together my own big brake kits for far less cost than ordering existing kits.
