While I'm not refuting that these are valid comparisons, there are additional factors that can go into these stopping distances. The Tires being a primary factor, heat and heat retention being others. CCB were designed for racing where they are subject to sustained and prolonged periods of heavy braking that may not necessarily be possible with iron brakes.

Bottom line, more factors to consider when selecting your brake materials than just a single stopping distance test.

Just food for thought.
