Big Brakes!

For track use, E.R.A. offers extra large front and rear brakes.  Shown at the right is a 427SC with the optional vented rotors and Wilwood calipers.  The standard optional configuration (which fits into the 15" pin-drive wheel and most bolt-on wheels) uses a Sierra/JFZ caliper (equivalent to the Wilwood Superlite series) and 12.2" directionally vented rotors.

We have discontinued any optional brakes for the Jaguar-based suspension.  Instead our optional outboard-braked rear suspension has 11.8" x .81" vented rotors as standard.

This car will use 17" wheels so we've modified our standard adapter to fit Wilwood calipers clamping 12.8" rotors.

But don't assume that the stock brakes are "too small"!  A 427SC with stock brakes won the 0-100mph-0 Hot Rod challenge with a time of 12.07 seconds!

For prolonged extreme useage, though, the recovery time of the optional brakes is much less.
