Stoptech Trophy Brake System Installed at HP Autowerks, Inc.

Just sharing some photos of the new Stoptech Trophy Brake system. This particular system was installed on an E92 M3.

Front Kit is 380 x 35mm
Rear Kit is 355 x 35mm

Some of you may have already seen this kit on an E92 M3 in Stoptech's booth over Bimmerfest weekend.


"StopTech, a manufacturer of brake components and brake
systems for production-based race cars and high performance vehicles,
has introduced the new Trophy Big Brake Kits. These premium Big Brake
Kits from Centric Parts' ultra-performance division sport a host of
features optimized for production-based cars on the race track.
StopTech's Trophy Big Brake Kits represent the first time StopTech has
made race-specific brake systems available to the public after the
company's long relationship with championship-winning professional race
teams.

"StopTech's Trophy Brake Systems take our experience and successes from
our racing program and deliver on-track performance with no compromise,"
said Dan Lelchuk, president of Centric Parts. "As far as the brakes go,
you provide the pads and the track, and a StopTech Big Brake Kit
provides the rest for your stock or tuned performance production car."

These racetrack and competition brake systems come with StopTech's new
Trophy STR lightweight forged calipers in four- or six-piston
configurations and include the option of a quick release version of the
StopTech patented bridge. These "track only" calipers feature the same
metallurgy and design of the StopTech ST-40 and ST-60 calipers, but are
engineered to provide a 20-percent reduction in weight without
sacrificing stiffness or performance. "Every race team out there is
obsessed with shaving off weight, no matter what the sport, and
StopTech's Trophy STR racing calipers do just that," said Dino
Crescentini, CEO of Centric Parts and race car driver in the SCCA World
Challenge Series on The SPEED Channel.

StopTech Trophy Big Brake Kits include the company's patented
AeroRotors, engineered to increase airflow by 11 percent for better
cooling and performance. Unique to the Trophy Brake Systems is
full-floating mounting hardware, which eliminates pad knock-back. The
patented, billet 7075 aluminum AeroHats create an additional 4 percent
airflow, according to StopTech. Together, these technologies optimize
the rotor system to provide even performance and consistent feedback to
the pedal under the unique combination of hard cornering and braking
found on the track.

StopTech Trophy Brake Systems will be available through motorsports
distributors in January 2009 for selected high-performance production
cars including Porsche, BMW, Mitsubishi Lancer EVO, Nissan GTR and 350Z,
Chevrolet Corvette C5 and C6 and others."
