I am happy to report I have totally solved all my brake issues by finding the right brake pad combination. It seems the Ferodo DS1.11 up front, was the problem. Being and endurance pad which takes a bit more heat to build friction, and then it's high level of friction, were first giving the rear artificially more rear bias, and then once it came in was alot of friction, which was freaking out my system.
I switched to CSG C1X front, along with my existing CE1 rear, and the car is simply perfect, and incredible on the brakes now. No issues every with ice-mode, or 4-wheel lockup. Confidence is totally there under all conditions. It has transformed the car from a fun, but not trustworthy car, to now something I am happy to hot-lap in close quarters under all conditions. I highly recommend this pad combination, it's fantastic.
