    Here is a "In-Car" video of our quickest pass in the BAER brake Speed/Stop challenge at the 2011 RTTH7 pro-touring event..

    Here we went 0 - 74mph - 0 in only 9.70 seconds.

    Nice run Scot!!! I can't figure out why they use that left lane though, with that huge "ditch" right at the finish line!! The right lane has that ditch filled in and there wouldn't be such a huge jolt to the suspension right at the line!!

    Thanks! I totally agree and the track owner even recommended the right lane to Bill but he still chose the left like last year. I think the reason is because if something were to happen it's further away from the spectators that were lined up along the fence/guardrail on the right..At least that's all I can think of...

    Your right that is one hell of a jar from inside the car!! It literally feels like the suspension is going to come out from under the car, that's just another testament on how well these suspension components hold up!! ;)

    I didn't see Bill making a run. Maybe next year somebody needs to take him for a full boogy run down that lane and jamb on the brakes at the finish line and show him what's going on.

    I just got word that all three of my passes were inside the 40' box each time and that my top speed was 74mph and I know I could have done better had I more seat time... Each pass improved greatly but I am still happy the car went 0-74-0 in 9.70 seconds!! :)

    Great Write up!!

    I am in the process of doing the same to my car but I am having problems on finding out if there is a kit that will work with my rear c-clip eliminators and larger axels.

    Thanks for your write up again!

    Very nice , I wish to do the same , what are the measurements for the rear flange on the housing , I have looked at bear , and willwood , and they want to know that info before ordering ? I don't want to take it all apart to measure it ?

    If you order thru GNS Baer should already know exactly what you need for a stock set-up. I just received mine yesterday. By the way, they look incredible and I know they will work even better.
    So Baer has the info.

    There is no need to measure your rear flange, BAER does not need that info if your using the stock axle but willwood always does.... All BAER needs to know is what axle your using so they know how to make the kit so it adapts to that axle. If you order through us you TB.com members receive FREE SHIPPING on all BAER brake set ups!!
