Going to order rear pads this week, do y recommend going with xp10 or xp8 for the rear. I just got the xp10 for the fronts so going to just burn them out and go with xp12s next time around. Only issue is the car is daily driven so I didn't want to go with such an aggressive pad.

As for brake fluid, I guess ate isn't cutting it for me. Going to switch over the motul this week. Running it at njmp next week which requires more use of brakes.
We recommend square pads; that's where we had the best results with braking distances.

Yeah, you're quick. You're fading the XP10 fronts; I did some informal testing with just XP12 front/stock rear, and I was fading them after just a few hot laps, so a drive of your caliber has to be feeling the pain.

I suppose I should mention, brakes on this car wear much faster than on a Miata...
