Cris,
What booster with quick master cylinder? Also, how big are the brakes? I assume 14-13 inch up front with 6 piston calipers and 13" with 4 piston calipers in the rear...

I found this image today on one of the last test we did on Blu.. Brian Hobaugh in the hot seat & JJ Furillo from JRI shocks in the pass side.. After this test in Dec 2013 a decision was made to make some major changes.. Blu 2.0 is in the works & will share info as the new prototype pcs are made..

Car is on diet!
