Not a single human being on this earth:
A - NEEDS CCB brakes for performance reasons on the street
B - can tell the difference in un-sprung weight while getting groceries

Factory brakes are more than adequate for ANY legal driving requirements.
CCBs come down to "mine is "better" than yours" for people with money.

As for track use, any proper steel BBK will be more appropriate than a factory CCB.

Super Late Models here us normal disk brakes (slotted, never cross drilled) and they are heavily used ~ every 7 seconds for 200 laps and work just fine.

Happy Thursday

Yeah, sorry. The other day I read a thread of some poor soul on the F8X forum that bought into the marketing hype and destroyed his CCBs in 4 days. That is **much** worse performance than a steel bbk

I should just let the comments slide, but eventually someone will read this and I don't want them making the same mistake as the guy on the other forum
