I run the losi 2.0 black disc's and the stock pads with the pad material dremeled off. Brakes never fade, and the disc's last forever.

Use this setup. You will never regret it. The Avid discs are hard to get, but they are well worth it. You will not be dissappointed.

I find the Mugen stock brakes work just fine.Spend your money on tires, thats the only thing you need to set up this car

the stock brakes work great as long as you don't actually use them.

thunder tiger discs are another option.

I have running mbx6 and mbx6t for several months now....haven't any breaking issues at all. In fact they are probably the best all around breaks I have used. What issues are you guys having?

If your races are shorter than 10 minutes the stock brakes are fine. I and others have experienced significant fade during prolonged mains.
