I was wrong. Z rated is to 149 mph and over. Actually, W and Y ratings are better.

Z=149 MPH, 240km/h and over, Sports Cars
W=168 MPH, 270km/h, Exotic Sport Cars
Y=186 MPH, 300km/h, Exotic Sport Cars

you're name is Damien and you are the biggest retard I have ever seen posting about cars. You don't know anything because your pea brain is still stuck in the 50s. Drum brakes suck you ****head, they don't have half the force applied or anywhere near the heat dissipation a disc setup has. Maybe if you went to college, studied engineering (actual engineering, not some meatheaded, GED-accepting tech school for tards) you'd know this. Just for the record, the only racers that still use carbs are drag racers. Every other form of racing from IRL to Rally and LeMans uses EFI engines. EFI is far more reliable, has the ability to correct for numerous environmental factors AND error as well as greater efficiency because a computer can do a lot more as far as adjusting timing and fuel delivery for temperature/pressure/humidity than some mullet-toting retard holding a wrench pissing around with a carb. Drag racers can still rely on carbs because after their 7 seconds or less of running is up, they can play around with them. A computer is far better for long duration races. Get a clue and shut the **** up. The world needs less ignorant retards that think because they don't get how something works its wrong and bad.

how about you explain what numerous physicists spent a good part of their lives trying to figure out? Oh wait, explanations are too much for you, you just like claiming you know things when you don't. get out of here, inbreed. You probably think the theory of relativity has to do with your unbranching family tree

I think you mean, dual, and it's an archaic piece of **** braking system that uses 2 servos (likened to pistons on a superior disc brake system) instead of one. For a little extra "clamping" power, and no more heat dissipation. What's an MRI? idiot

Re: To carb or not to carb....

drum brakes offer more stopping power and disc brakes offer more heat dessipation, disc brakes arnt self energizing u bone head, u need to learn about the basics of cars before u get into high tech stuff

Are you done making up terms? Do you even know what heat dissipation is? Go learn something about thermodynamics and cooling. The fins on a drum aren't anywhere near as effective as the open air cooling and slotting of a disc brake. There isn't a drum brake car around that can stop within 100 feet of a performance oriented disc brake system
