Forcedfed Evo MR Brake and Slalom Numbers!

[ForcedFed]

Hello Guys,

The new issue of Sport Compact Car magazine features our Alcon Brake package which set a SCC record from 60-0, 70-0 and 80- 0mph!!


60-0mph 98 feet

70-0mph 135 feet

80-0mph 179 feet After 16 stops in a row!

An Enzo Ferrari takes 151 feet to stop from 70mph!

We also just missed out on the slalom record on RA1's with our shop MR running our Ohlins with our spring rates and rear sway bar. We clocked in at 76.9mph through through the slalom on Toyo RA1 tires. Let me know what you guys thought of the article.

Agreed. Put the enzo on R compounds and re-check the distances. Not to discount a great performance by the forcefed car however.

Toyo RA1 tires as I mentioned in my first post. The Enzo Ferrari comes with state of the art Bridgestone Potenza RE050 Scuderia Tires(345/35/19 in back!!).http://www.bridgestone-firestone.com/news/newsarchive_2002.asp?id=2002/020723a

The Enzo also has Brembos calipers with 15 inch ceramic rotors in front and back! :shock: Plus it is a million dollar supercar, and we have a $35,000 Evo with our small 14 inch Alcon brake package, stock rear brakes, Ohlins and Toyo RA1 tires in 275/35/18 size. Not bad in my book. :)

Stock evo slalom speed on street tires is approx 72-74mph depending on who you listen to, you be the judge.

Well, I was comparing that # vs. the ones from the Motor Trend RS vs. GSR vs. MR test. IRC, the slalom speeds were in the 69-71 mph range.
