Thumbs up minimum requirements for brakes

hi all, if you want to race your build or take it to the nationals is there a minimum brake caliper and/or disc diameter/size that you will need to run,in order to race,maybe race is the wrong word "1/8 mile"possibly,
in order to stop at the end,
im going to run series 3 jag front series 2 rear .seems there is alot of guys changing to bigger disc/caliper options in order to stop,i thought with the weight difference between jag and my build of approx 1000kgs this should be more than enough to stop.
or does the power to weight ratio take effect and warrant a bigger braking system or is this personal preference.
any help with this would be greatly appreciated also possible makes and prices would help also.

sorry bout the long thread
