Are those available for the G now as an option on new orders? Or just Murci?

Yes, I posted a pic on LPower before the big crash.

If the're comparable the F430's CCB's then there is a big difference. Steel vs Ceramic can not be compared - I still struggle to brake smoothly on the F430 because they're are just so super sensitive!

Shuey2k on here has CCB's on his 360CS, says they're great until you get the bill for new pads. :)

Just tell the cop, hey, I have to drive this fast, you know how expensive it is for me to stop this car?

Before I left SP, I was working with a company overseas on making a kit for the Gallardo. They overturned the project to the American company Stoptec. Through the right people, I can order the factory kit for a great price over Retail, but all in all, it comes down to what it's worth to you.

Yeah, Stoptech recently published news of their new ceramic brakes for the public.

Carbon brakes are great, but for average driving, the average driver will only notice the huge bill at service time. If you are tracking on a regular basis, and are experienced, you will notice a big difference.

Dino, welcome to the board by the way! :) Not to go completely off topic, well okay, to go off topic, I want to hear more about this Indycar in your signature; any chance I can twist your arm to start a thread on that in the racing section? I'm just recently taking a more serious interest in auto racing.
