I don't know, takes 5 seconds for me to pull each pin, no problem.
One finger on the spring clip, the other hand wiggles the pin with pliers.
Would take me more time to swap tools.

I pull the safety pins out with the same pliers.

Everyone has their method of removing and replacing the pins.

I carry a 7/16 spanner/wrench around and undo the bleed nipples

Let's just let that whole thing fizzle instead to restarting it. Everyone stated their mind. Time to move on.

We're waiting for your videos of your stock brakes (not Brembos) at RA/AMS working over 20 minutes and having issues while actually driving the car near it's limits....

Again if you are gonna talk big and ask for videos, you better be putting up your own videos in defense of your argument first.

Guess everyone is gonna be waiting.

I got what I wished for. Now it's time to let it fizzle out.

Not to keep beating this dead horse, but why do high-end sports car offer ceramic brake packages? Is it so much bling and bragging rights? Or do the higher HP and weight cars actually need that much fade resistance? Assume we're talking actual track use, not just cruising down the boulevard.
