I feel like these things last forever! You guys who use the Carbotechs, I strongly suggest you give these pads a try.

Link works fine. I'm not internet savy enough to post actual pics unless I post them on photobucket first, and I'm just too lazy to do that today.

^ intrawebz noob. links don't work fool. they work for you cause it's your mail account and you're logged on. set them to public.

ST43 are for girlies, real men run ST47. i just put on the ST47 yesterday after my CL RC6 are spent. amazing torque and pedal fell solid, no compression in the pads at all. took awhile to bed them in though. only did 3 laps with A6 and 7 laps in NT05, but i really like these pads so far. might be my new favorite pads, and they are cheap. i think they are going to last as long as the ST43.

You'll have to try the 47's on street tires and see if its too much bite.

i did run the 47 on NT05 for 6 laps. felt fine to me on street tires. there is no suck thing as too much bite on track, just learn to modulate. if it's in the rain, then that's a different story.
