Standard vs. Wilwood brakes

[QUOTE=Bob Cowan;208574]I started out with standard Ford brakes, a dual MC (no booster), and some good pads. I found them to be easy to use, with excellent stopping power with minimal effort. At anything less than about 20mph or so, I had to be careful not to lock them up on a panic stop. IMO, a well set up and adjusted system using stock Ford parts will be more than enough for these light weight cars.
However, once I started racing, I quickly burned them up. If you're planning (or just considering) road racing, install the biggest baddest Wilwood brakes you can find. Expensive now, but cheaper later.[/QUOTE]
