With air ducts in my lower front valance I’m searching for a setup to cool the front rotors.

Someone told me Smart (whatever) has the trick setup, but it’s expensive. Any good alternatives?.

smarts set up is really compatible with a vented rotor...

what is your combination?

You can always route cold air to an non vented rotor and have it dump onto the rotor.

I've got a lead on a cheap/new smart kit (fiberglass) if anyone is interested.

I'm pretty sure AJ USA out of San Diego sells a nice one for the Porsche control arm.

I have the best way in the world to keep your brakes cool..Randal... STAY OFF OF THEM..

All they do is slow the car down. laugh.gif

Your right, but it's hard to go into turn 1 at Thunderhill (wide open) without hitting those brakes. This is something you have to work up to...

I'll wonder if Rich goes through there flat out?

Turn 1 takes a light tap/and or lift.

The only real place where we are hard on the brakes is turn 10 + 14 at Thill (in a 2.0 4cyl car)

I'll know today where we get the fiberglass style that attaches to the control arm.
