Conclusion

| 00:00 | - This brings us to the end of our motorsport braking system course. |
| 00:04 | We've covered all the key braking components in this course and you should now have a solid understanding of how they all work together as well as the potential issues and how to avoid them so you can develop an effective performance braking package. |
| 00:19 | As with most things related to motorsport engineering, the best way to learn is by practical experience so it's time to get out there and analyse braking systems to make educated changes that will improve them. |
| 00:32 | Remember if you didn't fully understand anything in these modules, it's easy to go back through and revisit anything you may feel you need a refresher on. |
| 00:40 | Before we finish up, there are a few things that are important to reiterate. |
| 00:44 | Modifying critical components on a car, especially the brakes, obviously needs to be approached with care and caution to make sure that the finished package is strong and safe. |
| 00:56 | It's important we have a good understanding of any changes we're making to a vehicle and the result the changes will have. |
| 01:03 | Almost every change in an automotive application comes with some form of compromise and any effect on safety must be considered carefully. |
| 01:13 | And lastly, remember that brakes designed for demanding applications are generally more expensive to purchase and maintain and motorsport brake pad compounds are often noisy and produce lower friction forces when cold compared to street focused compounds. |
| 01:31 | This course was designed to give you the knowledge and understanding to modify design test and tune your braking system for performance application but there's always more to learn so if you have any technical questions or concepts that you'd like to dive deeper into, be sure to find the form below which will generate a topic on the member's forum for discussion. |
| 01:52 | Thanks again for taking this course, I'm looking forward to seeing some of your brake system projects on the forum. |
