New tires - check. New brake pads - check.........

So, S..... how many miles do you get out of a set of brake pads or should I say .. how many "dragon" weekends do out get out of a set of brake pads?

I was typically getting around 10-11K on stock pads, but when I had a set of slotted rotors, they were chewed up in 7k-8k miles. After putting the stock rotors back on, I'm back to 14-15k per set. I must be slowing down!

If you guys didn't know I lost my engine not too long ago, and just bought one yesterday, so I hope I can make it in time before registration closes

Dang Sheila..... I get 40-50k on a set of pads.....

Guess I either:
1. need to speed up
2. use my brakes more
3. drive with my parking break on
4. pull over on the Dragon to let you speed freaks buy
