I remember reading the Car&Driver review of TR-8 when it was new. Seems to me it was written by Pat Bedard, if that matters. He (or they) went bonkers over the car, especially the acceleration and handling, but were less than impressed with the brakes. They even pointed out as to how the diameter of the rotors had been reduced from the TR-7, though the swept area was still high. They commented as to how they would have considered diameter to be the more critical parameter. It does suggest, though, that TR-7 brakes might be a better choice, if the parts will fit. Bill S., is this reasonable? Jim Muller
