Big Brake Kit Questions
I have a brake issue with my car. My brakes have been squealing even after I put on the OEM shims and I am running Hawk HP+ pads and cross drilled and slotted rotors from Brakelabs. It is a bit annoying, and it sucks but I was thinking about upgrading my brakes. I plan to do a bit more track racing this summer than AutoX and I figure why not upgrade when my car is not in use in the winter. I did some research regarding BBKs vs upgrading pads and rotors and it seems as if BBKs will provide better braking due to the surface area of the rotors but it would mess up the cars braking distribution. Anyone that runs BBKs or knows anything about this topic, if you can clarify, it would be greatly appreciated. I think I read too much information and got confused over it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

RE: Big Brake Kit Questions
I drove my car today after 2-3 weeks of it just sitting in the garage, the cold 24 degree F air did wonders! I really drove it hard and did a lot of late braking on the car, corner after corner and I got out and got my hand close to the rotors and they were scalding. I think I might have to fabricate a brake duct to cool them off but with about 6hrs of track time I don't want to have to worry about comming in after 6-8 hot laps in summer heat and let the car sit for about 30mins to an hour depending on how many cars are there at the time and would just like to continue driving hard all day and not have to worry about brakes and drive back home with no issues.
