Brakes

Post by Astro »

Hello,

does anyone know something about braking with group 5 cars in 1969? The regulations says nothing about, that means, one could use everything. But what was available, what was used? :)

I seem to remember Arden used special Girling alloy calipers off Formula cars late in the '69 season, not sure on rear drums but most '68 cars had standard drums (though I'm sure Minifins were available?)
