patrickt Yes I do like the out board brakes, but would then have to redo the suspension and shock for the car. The other issue would be to go to a quick change rearend like NJ200R did years ago. Not sure if he is even on the forum any more. Did a beautiful setup for his ERA. Changing the 2 gears would be the only issue. That rearend is built for 750 HP out of the box. How much wax are you using to kee p the bottom of the car clean?? NO dirt, no stone chips, no grass, TOO PERFECT. Rick L.
