A 1½" ABS plumbing 90° zip tied to the front suspension and aimed at the brakes.
I'll try it this weekend on the track. It won't hurt, remember that. rip away (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ar15.gif) KT Attached image(s)

Spraying water onto the brakes is a proven way to lower brake temps in pro racing. It was used not too long ago (maybe 6 or 7 years ago) by misting water into the brake cooling ducts. They had a bit on it on the TV coverage back before IROC became all ovals. If you've ever seen class 8 truck racing from Europe you'll see some very aggressive use of water spraying. I believe they spray water into the fins on vented discs, but I'm not sure. I don't have practical experience, but I recall rotor life is definately not good. I wouldn't recommend squirting water at the braking surface. I've lost my brakes running off road, even with discs, by getting a LOT of water on them. I'm not sure how much water it would take with a squirter, but I wouldn't want to find out on the track either.
