I'd run them 16 psi all round and if you don't use some '' tyre grip '' to bring them back to life , they'll improve as you lose some tread and get down to , say 3mm's ;)

Hi all,
Are you happy with 0.625 master cylinder and M16 calipers for the front brake setup ?
I have a lot of pedal travel, bleeding is ok, master cylinder is new. It's really the front.
Braking is ok but I hate this pedal travel.

thank for reply.

Good to here you liked the Fury using my set-up with the ARB , video shows it's no slow coach along side the Porsche :P On another note , I didn't mention it before but I use a 3/4 or 0.750 master cylinder for front brake and clutch then the 0.625 on the rear brakes (mine being drums of course)
If you've got a biased pedal box , I set mine at --- all to the front brakes THEN just 4 or 5 half turns back . I tipex mark the rod to watch as I turn it PLUS when you look down the footwell , you can see if it's moved . Having the bike engine , you may only need 2 half turns back :?:

Ah it reminds me of all the track days I did with Lotus on Track in France. No one likes to be overtaken they all overtake from all angles and into the braking zones. Anyone would have thought there was money to be won. :D
Its just not British I say.

I have a 0.700 mc at front with M16/Mintex1144 and 0.750 at rear with standard escort drums.
I have too much brake at front with pedal-box set to full rear.
I think to try 0.700/0.700 setup mc.

Too, my tyres are 12 years old, brake and lateral grip are not very good. an other video with onboard GT3.

you're right Rob, I change my rear MC for a 0.625 and it's better, too I have a 0.8 gain on this track. thank for advice.
