The trouble as I see it is you can tune engines to probably produce many more BHP than they used to in period but the brakes since now non-asbestos if they have to be original spec are probably worse than they were.
??? Not sure on the early stuff but the Group A cars really will have no problem with the correct homologated brakes at any circuit .
