RE: Break pads
 
Why would you want to use carbon fiber? They're more brittle than the ones one there and would probably crack under the heat soon enough imo. Besides I don't think you'd get to much bite seeing as the brake discs are fiberous. www.amainhobbies.com or www.carolinasrc.com should have the stock ones you should be looking for.

I used these on my Mugen for more than 2 years & the work great and they are WAY lighter than stock. Less weight, less rotating mass, good stuff.

Someone makes ones like this for the Losi, I just can't seem to remeber where I saw them.

He was asking about brake pads, not brake discs in his question. I know those are available. :eek:
