Anybody in/around Orlando know a good road to use for brake pad bed-in?

 

just do a few pulls and apply the brake evenly and thoroughly. You don't need to be doing 120+ do break the brakes in.

Technically that depends on the pad compound. If your trying to bed in street pads, ya a few 70-20 pulls will work just fine. However if your running race compounds (as in real race, not HP+'s or the like), you have to get them well into their operating temp. range and keep them there for a bit to to produce the "break in layer" that you want on the rotors. Otherwise your in abrasive mode and your just scraping metal together. Being that we are not in the mountains and traffic is everywhere it's very hard to do so. The best ones i know of is either

A. The first track session, take it easy mind you
B. Highway pulls or some not-so-busy roads up near orange city, USE YOUR HAZARDS.

 

go on the 429(very little traffic) and keep getting off and on. most of the off ramps are long.

dont forget to enjoy the hartzog road exit going southbound!

 

Either Turkey Lake Road behind Universal Studios or Apopka-Vineland are pretty decent.

 

Thanks for the suggestions. For now, just needed a good place to re-bed the stock pads because they're depositing material on the rotors making them feel warped, so they'll get hit with garnet paper and rebedded. I'm liking the 429 suggestion--not familiar with the Hartzog exit, but sounds worth a trip. Thanks again, guys. Much appreciated.

 

Give them to Balrok, he'll break them in and give them back.

 

hit OBT ull break them in good there lol

 

Stock ones? LoL, what'll be left of them
