You need to be prepared for one thing. On a rainy day if you drive a good distance on the interstate you will need to tap your brakes from time to time to keep the heat in them. The first time you have a panic stop on cold XP8's you will remember this warning.


I forgot last week.

I ran 2 seasons of trackdays with one set of Yellowstuff pads. They're great pad for someone starting out doing trackdays. But once you get some wheel time. Then you need to start looking at some others. Using the 10/8 combo for track now. I have the Yellowstuff pads on my Jeep Grand Cherokee, and on my Power Wagon, which used to tow a 10,000lbs camper.

Something else to think about. Some pad and rotor combo's don't work well together.
