Took it at a Eurotuner car show in san jose.

The guy took his audi to the extreme. he also had the biggest exhuast pipe I've ever seen in person. You could stick your foot in it!.

Are u sure that's not really for looks? Since the calipers are prolly gonna be controlled hydraulically, one would have to surmise one fo the calipers would grab before the other, making the stopping power of the seocnd caliper negligable. If this was so beneficial, how come I don't see this on F1, CART or IRL?

F1 calipers are like the half moon type. Anyways, the only reason to have a dual caliper is if there is some problem in the braking system whether its the calipers or the weight. I am putting duals on my road racing stang and it should make a difference!
