Brake /Slow vehicle down without other human intervention other than driver
Ahaha, what a funny picture. Anyway, thats just the motorcycle, imagine whats gonna happen to a 1 tonne(1000kg) car moving at 60KMph?
Braking work by having the brake caliper + pad(the thing that clamp the disc) contact with the rotor, the big disc thingie. The friction created will cause energy conversion(kinetic/potential energy to heat energy, brakes gets hot if you use them alot), hence slowing down. Bigger caliper result in larger contact area, hence more energy conversion.
If you pay close attention I haven even got to increase more power. Because its extremely dangerous having a 500HP monster engine and milk bottle cover to stop your car. So before we venture any deeper, we must have more stopping power than rocket thrust.
This is a normal front brake system you'll find on passenger car.(below)
If you're planing to go far(like...live longer) with the engine power max out, you'll need one of these:
These are performance brake, or racing brake. They are lighter, and some constructed out of exotic material that will prevent brake fade(but thats abit too far if you just want to go fast on normal road). Most importantly, they shave speed like nothing else.
Good one like Brembo is going to cost you. But decide which is best for your vehicle. You certainly don't need racing brake if your car is going to spend the rest of its life doing a max speed of 60KMph, or in the traffic jam scenario, not moving.
Once you've done this properly, treat yourself to this:
Glowing ring of intensity
Enjoy.
