The brake idea makes me so happy to have switched to FDF products and commit to them fully. Keep up the creative, and out the box ideas man. It's obvious you love what you do. I love that you bring us along for the ride with these videos. It makes a big difference and makes me want to use more of your products. I am genuinely proud to have your parts on my car.
Remote reservoir shocks have been around since the early 80's in the off road (dirt) motorcycle world. Remote mounting to allow shock oil to stay cooler (mounted in airflow) Shock positioning and swing arm length had probably most development and experimentation during a 7~10 year period where all sorts of things were tried until 'today's' formulation in more or less the same for all manufacturers where styling and weight varies but actual point positions are fairly constant. Rover had inboard discs in early 1960's, Alfa Romeo I had in 80's also had them. Biggest issue on both was overheating during extended/high speed use so ducting was needed. Pretty interesting stuff though.
Just when I shared video and commented in a group chat your brains and suspension ideas at about 11 minutes in you threw in the brakes. WOWZERZ!! Revolutionary stuff for the chassis every minute
JF - "I am gonna tell you something that will blow you mind" Me - "nah, but go on" JF - "brakes mounted on the inside between the diff and axels. Just because I can" Me, mind blown.
Loving the ingenuity of the inboard brakes I see the performance and reliability advantages and more power to you and way to think out the box and seeking advantage where others don’t👌💪
Thank you for your videos. They are really inspirational. Hopefully one day I will be running your products on my car. For now I am just learning from you.
My Shelby Cobra Replica (Australian kit) has Jag irs with inboard rear brakes. My biggest concern is having a rear brake fire that burns my car down. Thinking of putting fire suppression in there. My thoughts are that there is a reason that a lot of old race cars had them and now none do. But maybe it will work I drifting....?

This car is way to cool for FD! So much innovation! I'm so excited to see it run!
The ingenuity and ideas transition into a drift car it’s amazing love the content 🤙
Awesome as always guys the brake setup is going to be sweet. Love the fact you guys are always trying new things.

I'm really enjoying all the content!
I’m definitely getting a set of BC soon. BR series because I’m broke 😅

Just not a fan of inboard brakes. Maybe because of the years of hard braking in a Humvee 😅
Same haha
You should reach out to Taylor Ray he's got a custom set of bc's that gives more travel to his rear suspension.
I love you
F1 tech and air jacks…. What else? Dang. I made a video about repairing rust on a Honda fit. 🥹
