Default GT40 article in Road & Track
There is an excellent article in Road & Track online reprinted from October 1966. The article shares much detail of how the GT40 was developed to win Le Mans in '66. It mentions that Phil Remington developed the quick change brake pads, but says that John Holman devised the quick change disc rotors (?). There are even photos of Remington with the quick change brake hardware. Also, some good quotes from Ken Miles on the car and its handling. The article is called The Ford That Beat Ferrari by Ron Wakefield.
