End of June? are you planning to get them on before auto x day?


Email a couple of months ago from Martin

The Magic Pads have more bite, less dust and no noise compared to stock. They are an excellent value over buying stock pads as well. If you really only drive on the street, even aggressively, and cannot tolerate dust or noise but won't give up bite, these are for you.

The Axxis pads have some trade offs sitting between the Magic and Ferodo pads. They make a little more dust than the Magic pads, but less than stock and a lot less than the Ferodo pads. A lot more bite than the Magic, almost comparible to the Ferodo. Can make noise, generally not, but we throw in the pad shims just to be safe. They go about 200 degrees F higher than the Magic pads.

interesting. i wonder how the hawks compare to those...

i probably would wait till after the auto-x day to do pads. mine aren't that bad, no sense putting that wear on new pads

Yeah, I have the Goodridge SS lines...I dig 'em.

I may do a flush 'n' fill on the brake fluid before the Auto-x day....for nothing other than to get the pedal feeling nice and firm again.

I dunno if we need a helmet- anyone wanna email the organizer?

Other items I am desperately going to try to get to are my driveline fluids I would really like to have those on lockdown by then.



and Paul, of course I will help you... (how else would I obtain goofy pics of you posing for the camera while I worked?)
