it has always confused me why Honda didnt use competition brakes on the S2000
The stopping ability of the S is incredible... okay the brakes do fade after a few laps on a track... but for road use they are simply stunning.
You don't need red calipers and a brembo sticker to stop quickly you know!

A few weeks ago after a CG geo tweak, Chris ran the car up and did a full power stop from 70mph on good surface. I have NEVER seen a car pull up so quick, even kept it off the ABS. In fact a lot of bikes would struggle to come down that fast and I do speak from experience. The pull up was noticably better after geo alignment.

Nick, I thought EXACTLY the same when I read that bit.

I agree though, I find the S's brakes very very good
