The pads were swapped in the day before. The rest of my brake setup is stock. First off, let me say swapping in pads just for track days is very easy. It took me 30 minutes to do both sides (this is for the front, I left the rear stock for now). These pads are a very noticeable improvement over stock. Last time I was at the same track with stock pads, I went off at one turn because the brakes were barely there. The stock pads were just being melted away and the brake pedal was almost going to the floor. The Kerr Friction pads did fade a little bit, but nowhere near the stock pads. I'm sure if I ran a rotor that was cooled better, it would be even more fade resistant. These pads are not recommended for full street use though, they will chew up the rotors. Not to mention the noise they make when they're cold, they're very loud. Its ok to drive to and from the track with them. I would definitely recommend these pads to anyone who just wants a little more performance out of their brakes..but doesn't want to go all the way with a BBK. I'm looking into upgrading the rotors pretty soon. I'm installing SS lines w/ Motul600 in the next week or so. Here are pictures of what the pads and rotors looked like after the track day. The pads look a lot worse in the picture than they do in person...just the reflection I guess.

Here is the passenger side rotor. The rotor itself is about a month old.

and it's almost imposible to boil. You're always looking for highest wet boiling point possible, and SRF has the highest. They pour this stuff straight out of the can into Formula 1 cars.

In my old 1993 S4 (3900 lbs) with big reds, I had stock, super blue, ford race fluid, and motul. Boiled them all at track events and needed to bleed them all except for SRF.

i'll be sure to provide a little write up of the pros/cons.

it's a two day event with a total of 2.5 hours of track time per day.

i have a backup set of slotted rotors along as well.

Given the bad results of running super blue in the S4, I'd be hesitant to be a guinea pig with another brake fluid brand...

i heard about your car. did you have any problems along the way to LA?

The car isn't as bad as we all initially thought though. Turns out I had a blown off hose and a blown MAF. The car was in limp mode. The dealership ordered the MAF and hopefully everything will be done tomorrow. If its done in the morning, I'll set off tomorrow. Otherwise I'll leave on wednesday morning. See ya soon.
