Braking distance in a '00 GSR?
Anyone here know where I can find specs on the braking distance on a stock '00 GSR? I've got to contest a ticket soon and my defense lies on knowing the 46mph - 0mph braking distance. Any ideas?

Don't have it here, but Car and Driver and Road and Track both have those numbers in their index. They will be listed from 60 or 70 mph - 0. You can probably find it on thier websites.

From 60 mph . . 143 ft
From 80 mph . . 246 ft
This is according to Road and Track for the 1998 GS-R. This will be the same for the 2000 MY GSR as well.
Other performance numbers can be found here

Remeber that the mags do the tests with the sucky stock Michelins, and the quality of the tires affects braking distance a lot also. So if you have better tires you can have a shorter stopping distance. Aftermarket brake pads shortens the distance also as long as your tires are decent.
