Chevrolet Corvette C6 Z51 with StopTech Trophy Big Brake Upgrade

Why Upgrade your Brakes?

Big brake upgrades give your car greater resistance to fade by absorbing and shedding heat more efficiently.  Stock brakes were designed for one or two stops from high speed, not repeated heavy braking events with limited time to cool off.  For fade resistance on the track, size really does matter.  On the street, fixed-mount, multi-piston calipers yield a firmer pedal and quicker reaction time in panic stops than stock, floating calipers.  A mere 0.2 second reaction time improvement can translate into 21 feet of stopping distance at 70 mph.  On the street, quicker reaction time can help you avoid an accident.  You don't need to be a racer to benefit from brake upgrades.

If you track your car regularly, your stock brakes probably are not up to the task.  The correct approach is to start with better brake fluid, more aggressive brake pads, cooling ducts, and stainless braided brake lines, addressing problems as they arise.  But as you progress from novice to intermediate to advanced, carrying more speed into the braking zones, your track events will be characterized by boiling brake fluid, sinking brake pedal, and pad fade.  Losing confidence in your brakes makes you slower and takes the fun out of a track event.  Big brake upgrades allow you to dive deeper into the braking zones and brake harder than you ever thought possible.  Even more than horsepower, brake upgrades allow you to gobble up the distance between you and the cars ahead of you.

Zeckhausen Racing can help you choose the most cost-effective way to improve your brakes.
