End of season update
Hi All
It has now been 4 months and 980 miles with my rear brake conversion, and I have to say I am very good!
Driving to shows, the odd day trip to the office and general tom foolery has taught me a few things.
1st - I got used to the longer pedal and I enjoy the progressiveness of it.
2nd - Even in the rain, going too fast into a round about and emergency braking it felt very good and did not try to swap ends and send me into a Renault Clio that made me test my brakes to the full.
3rd - The handbrake is better now with new cables but not perfect and could do with a bit more work / Adjustment
4th - I need to do a track day to properly test them, but I think the lack of power would be the worst!
In the end I am glad I did it and it was a fun project that has worked out very well, although now I have bough a BMW E36 engine with 70% more power I might try and fit it to give it more of a test!
Regards
Barry
