Feedback:
I'm a novice driver and this was my first set of street/track hybrid pads. I was disappointed with them, they have great initial bite, but they taper off soon after. I managed to fade them about 6 laps into my 20 min session. On the street they where great pads, aside from the noise and slight dust.
Scores:
Dusting: (1=low-10=high) 5
Cold bite: (1=low-10=high) 7
Hot bite: (1=low-10=high) 6
Modulation: (1=low-10=high) 4, after initial bite, no matter how much harder I pressed the brakes, there was no change in braking force.
Noise: (1=extremely loud-10=quiet) 5, they squeal while street driving them, no noise under track loads.
Pad Lifespan: (1=short=10=long) Front: 3, lasted 6K miles and 3 track days. Rear: 7, still have about 40% life left after 4 track days and 8K miles.
Does the brake dust with this combination damage the wheels/paint if not cleaned immediately? (Y/N) N, left brake dust on wheels for weeks with no adverse effects.
Brake ducts: (Y/N) N
