At the bottom of the page, they have drag brakes, front and rear. They kind of look like motorcycle brakes but they weight alot less than stockers.

I've seen a nice set of Mark Williams light weight brakes used on the front of a 3,500# 30th SS convertible, PA Racing K-member, and pulling the car down from trap speeds well over 160mph..... seldom pulled the 'chute. MW even offers carbon rotors.
