No wonder the car wasn't stopping too well.

It was only using a portion of the pad, haha.

These are Project U 777's but i bought them used. I guess i was hoping they would flatten out after a few hours of driving but to no avail....

 

My stock pads looked the same when i changed them today

 

Really? How old were your pads?

 

since Dec 2001, 28000kms

 

I'm going to inspect my pads sunday. I'll take some pics.

So far they've been through 2 track days an 4 auto-x.

 

at least you HAVE pads...all i got are 4 fvcking plates.

 

Maybe you should sell the spoons to me and buy the brembos....

 

i would, but the spoons actually fit....

seriously though...you guys gotta try the spoons...i was braking at the 100 and i was OVER-braking....i had to coast or re-brake at entry of corner 1.

i have to practice being smoother....too much brake and too much throttle...nothing in between with me.

 

Actually, there's a set of Alcons that look sweet and are now available. Price is very much the same as Spoons...

 

yeah, anything aftermarket from a good manu. will be well worth the price of admission....especially since everyone is becoming bigger track junkies...

if rob had better brakes, he would have been 4-5 seconds faster a lap....all else being equal.

it's your call rob...you destiny

(and they come in blue )
