Subject: <VV> EUM ON THE ROAD / ULTRA BRAKES

Until VERY recently, Stock drum brake equipped Late model Corvairs remained
in the top 20 stopping distances of all American passenger cars without 
regard to
what type of brake system they used. The WTBRT race team uses ULTRA Race
brakes and is proud of their Autocross and Dragrace performances which put 
great
demand on the brakes. ULTRA parts for the knowledgeable and demanding
Corvair
Driver !!! <GGG>

BOHUNK employees and Drivers are excluded from ULTRA purchases.............
Would you like to be REMOVED as well???
