Porsche have an internal policy that at 62mph the car has to stop in half the time it takes it to go from 0-62!

 

Mine goes 0-62 in 3.4s which means I've got to be able to stop in 1.7s ... which is incredible until you consider that some of the more sporty offerings are punching 2.2 second!

 

They have to stop in 1.1 seconds!!!!!!

 

The Porsche purchasing department must be looking at engineering and saying "what the devil Guys!" 😉

Because the exif data encoded in it says so - why it is set to that is down to the device used to create the image.

Even worse! I've heard they get really hot when they eat the disks but then fade away...

Check out the latest Bentley GT stoppers. Considered the largest dia and thickness in the automotive world.
I can honestly say the ceramic option stopping power defy physics, they are epic, given the mass to haul up!
