A successful Viper racer and shop owner (Bobby Archer) is using a less known brake manufacturer because of its ability to out perform the existing manufacturers. The name of the brake manufacturer is The Brake Man. Before I explain his reasons, I would like to add that his shop also sells Brembo and Bear/Alcoa? I personally have no experience with the Brake Man Company, but the testimonials I have heard make this company worth considering. Archers shop claims they have completely eliminated any loss or fade, in any race condition. They also tell about a recent world finals class where the winner (who recently changed to this brand) clocked consistent laps 1.5 seconds faster then his competition. The top three were dyno’d and that winner made the least power. The kicker is that the prices are far less then his competitors, especially when his stuff is compared to the race version of the Brembo’s… not the Grand Turismo kits. The Brake Man has multiple Patents and seems to be gaining recognition in the racing industry. They also seem to be somewhat of an authority on Brakes… at least by the magazine quoted on their web site www.thebrakeman.com
According to Warren the owner, he has had a few calls recently for NSX kits. He says that if someone would stop by with an NSX, he could measure and develop a kit. The phone number is 805-987-7867.
