Free? People would be lined-up to do this.

Chances are, they'll find someone who works in the aftermarket industry who would be happy to do this... networking like this can be invaluable, especially if both companies get some exposure out of it.

This is Brembo... thay are not a bunch of clowns. Mark Valskis, their chief engineer, is a sharp and trustworthy guy. I would not hesitate to let them use my car (if I had an IS). I've worked with them in the past and they are a professional organization.

Last time I was up there, they gave me crap about my StopTech brakes (another fantastic outfit)... it was all in fun.

also im quite sure they test kits using dyno-like equipment. i dunno, but i doubt they have their own test track/airstrip to do 0-100-0 tests. im sure the lucky person who signs up will have to sign a waiver that explains exactly what type of testing is done (probably an NDA as well).

Thanks for saving me the time, you took the words right out of my mouth.

I've received 14 PM's, 9 e-mails, and 3 phone calls about this since I posted yesterday... I have one gentleman who will pay full retail on the kit he just wants to be the first to have it... why would we give the kit out for free when we have this type of response?

If you don't want to assist the BEST brake manfuacturer in the world, be the first one to have this kit, and get a once in a life-time discount.... then save yourself the time and don't post about how it should be free

Also, at this time we have more than enough participants, once everything is finalized I will reply back to everyone who contacted me letting them know whether we will need them or not.

Thanks for the overhwhelming response.

Regards,

Kevin
