Ok, I need some inspiration. For my classes in automotive tech at the local community college, it's a department wide requirement for in each class to do up to three periodical reviews per semester. Basically I have to do a book report of some article, usually related to class. So, what I'm looking for is can anyone point me to a cool article having to do with brakes. Any suggestions?

I think Angry Corvair wrote an article on brakes for GRM a while back...

www.stoptech.com has some very good articles on brakes. Some of them are written by Carroll Smith. Go to the technical information and technical white papers.

Cool, I somehow completely forgot about Stoptech's site. I also have one due in a couple weeks for my powertrains course. This class covers everything in the power train that isn't the engine or transmission, and let's face it there just aren't that many articles readily available on drive shafts, u-joints, and the like. I've already done two on diffs.
