How retarding?

There have been a number of posts on the board regarding factory brake upgrades and whether they should be available on various models.

The new GS does not have this option nor does any Ford Falcon/G.

Ford offered a factory brake upgrade package on the BA XR6T & XR8, I have seen maybe 2 ever.

FPV offered brake upgrade packages on Pursuit, GS, GT (inc GT40 & Cobra), F6 & F6 ute (inc Typhoon & Tornado).
I owned a F6 and have seen a couple of Pursuits and a GT40 with factory upgraded brakes.

As AFF is the centre of the universe for Ford/FPV buyers

there must be a few on here who have ticked the box.

The poll is multi answer for those who have bought more than one
