Stop driving like an a-hole on the streets and you wouldn't have that problem!

Throw those Carbotechs back on Pete!

You guys should try the CL pads if you want ultra strong cold bite. There's no warm up need on them whatsoever. The RC6 I had were amazingly strong, loud however. (I'm not trying to make a track pad comparison here, in case someone decides to read too much into things!)

I think if I put the CL's on my car I would flat spot my snows srsly. I cant see why cold bite on the et800s would be better, but I have no problem getting stopped

The CLs can be pretty dangerous in the snow, in my opinion. There's no give to them. You feel the power as soon as you touch the pedal. I agree with you though Jeff, I've ran the 800s, and now the 500s, and they have been fine thus far. I was even fine on Autozone pads I ran during the 2008 winter.

For the most part their fine. The incident I was refering too was on 95 headed home from Del Park... When traffic goes from 80 to 0mph its not about driving like an a$$, its more about saving your a$$. Thank god for medians.
