Andrew are you on stock pads? You'll smoke them before you smoke the calipers

Oh... wait... you're really fast. Maybe you'll do both

I toasted mine on the stockers... Of course, they got much worse when I went with the HPs, then the HP+.

Additionally, ECR is a fast track, the end of that back straight is VERY hard on brakes, 120mph to 25mph in a few seconds is brutal!!

I've not been to ECR yet. I really wish I'd gone and done the charity thing. Best value ever. $150 isn't too bad though.

Trying to justify the $$... since this will likely toast my tires (either set). And I'm getting the stink-eye from the wifeee because my grandparents are in town.

I was all about to say "too much in the rear" but I'm running -2* in the rear *lol*

I'm sure Kevin can recommend some nice vatozone pads for you. Guaranteed to last 1 or 2 laps
