Hi!
My site has been mentioned [Maurice Butler] as a source of spread sheet for a reasonable brake calculation.
I think that you guy's will love these new spread sheet that is based on a dual master cylinder to get a good brake balance.
It important that you understand how it works and therefor I have made some pictures of my 3D Cobra model of SolidWorks.
I hope that these pictures will help to understand what is going on during braking.
Don't forget that the tires is one of the biggest factors during stooping a car.
The pads friction is also very important, not because the biggest friction factor will help you but watch for the manufacturers data and see if the temperature rating is the correct one, also check that it holds the friction coefficient all the way [it is jut flat]
