&gt; Race cars are designed to stop faster than passenger cars. Their brakes are huge, they&#x27;re designed with exotic components to transfer heat to air faster, designed to take higher heat for longer, the cars are designed to flow air over the brakes, and they cost much more and don&#x27;t last as long, and have advanced computerized systems to optimize brake utilization.<p>A lot of that isn&#x27;t to brake faster but to keep the brakes from overheating from constant high use during a race that can last a couple hours or more. For normal emergency use you can drop a lot of that because they only need to be used extremely hard rarely and they&#x27;ll have time to cool.
