Default My pads

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....

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 )
