Subject:Re: Thoughts on the coming rear disc brakes from GW?

So, other than the bracket that attaches the carrier to the hub, how are
the Burley Motorsports rear disc brakes different than the SmallCar or the
GoWesty kits?  Are the pads different composition with different cold FMSI
friction codes?  The calipers look the same in the available pictures but
are they different?  Are there other factors that would impact parking
brake efficiency?

Do the Burley parking brakes really work better?
