I saw a post here last year announcing a photo contest. I went and checked out the cool cars on the contest site and put a pic of my car up. I ended up winning the grand prize in the Performance Therapy Online Photo Contest and one of the prizes was put up by Baer Brakes.

Well after talking with Todd about how I use my Firebird he set me up with a killer set of brakes that look like they could stop a freight train! The brakes he sent are way more than they probably envisioned giving away to the winner but he wanted to be sure I had brakes that would really do the job for me since I use the car on track regularly. As if 6 piston stoppers using rotors as big as the wheels the car left the factory wasn't enough, they sent me out the calipers in their new Nickle finish that isn't even on their website yet!

THANKS TODD !!!! They look amazing! Can't wait to get them on the car.

Here's a few pics I took when I popped them out of the boxes like a kid on X-mas morning! 14" rotors (all around) with 1/2" lugs, 6P calipers, parking brakes and an adjustable proportioning valve.

Thanks guys! I've been looking forward to getting some Baer brakes ever since the contest ended. Having real brakes on track is going to be an incredible difference compared to the single piston/drum combo, and these 14" with 6Ps are over the top!

Many thanks again to Todd and Baer!
