Why the heck wouldn't you put your rotors there? Less torsional load, lighter weight, probably quicker turning..... Gosh what a great idea that they came up with! Maybe they could adapt it to a motorcycle? |

These show up on concept vehicles just about every other year. The biggest problem with the car adaptation is removing the wheel/rotor combo. Hopefully someone figures it out and puts it in to production. |

ah the much hyped Toyobaru. Don't expect to see those brakes on the production version. |

Hmmm...I guess I should pay a little attention to foreign products... I walked right past the Scion booth - and that car - at the SEMA show in Las Vegas on Friday. If only I would've taken a second to check it out... Who was it who said 'Take the blinders off!'? 1313 |
