My car came with discs on all four wheels and I'm not changing them but I believe the drums should be more than adequate; if they weren't Porsche would've changed them out after the first season racing with them in '55.
I also love that this car will be just subtly smaller (i.e. the actual right size) and yet the steering wheel will be imperceptibly larger (i.e. also the right size), meaning the different proportion of the wheel to the tub should be noticeable even if you're not parked next to another replica.
All these little things add up.
@edsnova - You really are my brother from another mother. There's something about the larger wheel in the smaller car -- it changes everything for me.
@El Frazoo -- you're totally right. I tried to talk Carey into a Disc conversion, but I think he knew that I'd also want authenticity, so he just said "no." Being such good friends, we have that kind of relationship! 60mmGT brakes should suffice, and I'll get those on soon enough.
@Kevin - Bay Area -- You're always welcome here in Fresno -- come on down any time!
Here's the 420mm wheel. Carey thinks I've completely lost it.
