Just took delivery of my new XYZ BBK and am very happy with the service and equipment.



Looking forward to the install and even more so to trying them out in March at my 10/10ths Event at VIR

I will post updates on the install and performance as it happens



Now,
Can anyone point me to the right place to buy the cahonees needed to actually use these brakes to their full potential

tstar

Nice! I hadn't seen the new ones yet!!!

Cahones or a death wish... Maybe a bit of both?

rasrboy

Very nice Bill! You mean the Cahonees didn't come with the kit? Ask Popp to borrow a few, he has enough as it is.

Look awesome Bill, glad you like them! Mine came in as well and I cannot wait to get home to open them up!!!!

BTW I also ordered a second set myself, which is in RED like Bill's above for anyone interested

SouthernSon

Looking nice! I am sure you can use them for a little tap before T10 and a little trail braking on the back stretch for a new PB at VIR. As a matter of fact, reserve me another shotgun ride in March. I want to see the setup for real.

If any of you guys are interested in this set-up, it is the most affordable BBK you will ever find and can contact me if you would like more info or to pick up a kit!

HI Arte,
Looking forward to VIR and will give you a ride.
I have learned on IRacing to go 140 through the esses so will show you that new trick

Well actually maybe not

John Shiels

make sure you have a video installed when you do 140 in the esses. I have only been to VIR twice. Once I was sick and once I blew the clutch. So I guess 140 is fast in the SSSS as I remember?

SouthernSon

He is talking aero that is well adjusted, John. Believe me. I tried to approach at above 125 and ended up doing 360's to the top. Ended up with a car full of dirt/sand/grass but didn't touch a thing! My little C5Z has no aero pkg.

Arte, you need the uphill esses RAFT lesson....125 with no aero ought to be fine.....Someone else on this board and I have seen that on street tires through the esses...We'll work on that in March

SouthernSon

You are at the top of a very short list of persons I would try it with again. If you say it is a high percentage scenario then I'll go with that. It will be something to work on in March. But I'll work up past 125 slowly.

0Superman09

I hope I can make it to VIR in March!

WNeal

125 will no doubt be the top end for me.
I was doing 115 - 188 in October.
With some changes to the car and some more seat time, I think 125 is doable in March

WNeal

Me too

SouthernSon

Bill, I think I may have made too late an apex into the first left in anticipation of getting set up for a good line over the hump to the right. Perhaps the initial angle of incidence was a little too steep for the grip. I'll have to talk it over with the Danny. I think he was only .02 of a second behind a well prepped, very experienced, very well funded Viper/driver during a Grassroots motorsports shoot out if my memory serves me correctly. That may have been the track day that followed an all nighter to finish his engine. Popp knows track, Popp knows VIR.
