What’s Stopping You? (Porterfield Brakes) BREAK/FIX the Motorsports & Vehicle Enthusiast Podcast
-
- Automotive
When you first start out in Motorsports, the essentials are still the same: better Brake Pads, stickier Tires and Seat Time. For those of you who have had the pleasure of riding with GTM’er Mike ’Crutch’ Crutchfield in one of his vehicles, you know that he has a reputation. It isn’t for how fast his cars are (because they aren’t) but he has a reputation for “dropping anchor.” He brakes hard, and late, because he has confidence in his equipment. He can only have such confidence because he has invested the time and research into upgrading his brakes. New brake pads alone aren’t the answer, as there are a few extras to consider when upgrading your braking system. With us tonight is Wendy Charlier, General Manager for Porterfield Brakes - an industry leader in performance brakes, joining us for a technical chat about “What’s Stopping You?”
