    I am planning to start tracking the car next year and from past experience the GT brakes are crap to say the least!

    Chances are the 15" ultraleggeras will be fine on the 284mm kit...! :-)

    TBH youll get praise from anyone that think they are better than standard.

    How good they might be is not really measurable as there will never be a side by side of after market brakes like other products have.

    Well, without ABS the driver is in charge of avoiding locking the wheels by easing on and off the brake pedal. As the WMS setup is more powerful for a given amount of foot pressure it would be "easier" to lock the wheels, BUT 4 pots have more feedback or "feel" than sliding calipers (which are affected by friction on the sliders ect), so normally you can feel what's going on a bit better with 4 pots and react more accurately.

    Hope that helps!
