Anybody document how much a lap time can improve with brakes? Using simple physics and going from awful Gen 1 brakes to at least the 40mm rears (i.e. 0.8G to 1.0G in braking) calculates to a second in an autocross, a few seconds in a longer track lap.

While going from awful to pretty good is a big, big step, who has a good before and after with a major, major brake change?
