Day 2 of SEMA 2010 brought the big news about a whole new line of Big Brake Kits from StopTech. The company’s new Touring Big Brake Kits deliver StopTech performance and innovation at an entry level price. You can read the full press release on the Centric Parts site.
These kits combine StopTech’s legendary, patented, colored ST-40 four piston with a one piece performance rotor enhanced with Power Alloy for improved stopping power and superior resistance to cracking in performance driving situations. A set of StopTech street performance brake pads and other extras round out the package. These kits are a perfect upgrade on a budget.
The Identify This Car SEMA Challenge continues with StopTech’s Facebook fans racing to identify the make and model of varios cars from a close up photo of one vehicle detail. Eliot E bolted ahead of the pack during the day, so we have added a present that will go to the runner up. Jump in and have fun at www.facebook.com/stoptech.
Day 2 also saw many of the StopTech equipped vehicle on the exhibit floor grab some media attention.
The star of the show appears to be the new Honda CR-Z. Motor Trend, Inside Line, Auto Guide and more stopped by the Honda booth to profile the CR-Zs there. It so happens that StopTech’s Big Brake Kit for the CR-Z was just named Best Performance Product of 2010, so as expected a few cars at the Honda booth are sporting StopTech logos on the brakes. Other have Honda’s HPD brakes on them. We wonder who designed and engineered those? ;-)
