Another transbrake thread, & tires

Michael Pliska · 08-12-2009, 07:07 AM

I would be curious to know which brake is the fastest, and how much RT you picked up with it. I'm running a TCI brake from the mid-1980's, so I imagine there is some room for improvement.

As far as tires, IIRC when I swapped from 25" front tires to 23" (which actually measured around 22.6"), I gained between 0.015 and 0.020 in RT. I've got the 25's back on the car right now for no-electronics bracket racing, but will probably switch back if I can't redlight with them when I run S/G in a few weeks.

Regards,
