Check out AP Racing. They are not well known around here but arethe top of the line. Theyprivide brakes tothe top Formula 1cars as well as the top supercars, such as the Bugatti Veyron (1000hp/250 mph). Stillen is the US importer and has Mustang brake kits. I'm not a rep, I just want them myself:

let off the brakes. if they got that hot you were probably riding them too much. take it easy till you upgrade. and why autocross? Mustang sucks for sutocross. Straight line my friend. Straightline.

..cause thats what he wants?

IMO, drag racing only shows you have a good reaction time, autocross shows you can drive.

Don't forget to look at the Agent 47 brake cooling ducting. I think it might help in keeping things cool.

Actually I don't autocross that much. I tend to do road racing, which is completely different than autox.

I like to do both, drag and road course. But the road course makes the drag seem like a Sunday drive

You would be surprised at how well these stangs hang with the big boys on the road courses with just a few mods.

JT, ever get any rise on the temps when running?

The stock Mustang brakes are well known to be insufficient for autocross. They will warp. But no, the Stang doesnt suck for autocross. The FR500 Boy Racer smoked Porche and BMW in autocross, forcing the commision to mandate the FR500 use higher gears to level the field.

You need big brakes to handlethe heat.

Nope, but I always do a cooldown lap, and raise the hood as soon as I pull into the paddock
