Rotor glaze and ABS sensor

[Marty Kocse]

I ran Performance Friction 97's on the front and stock Porsche pads on the rear for all of last season - street and track driving.  I never had an ABS issue and I never had an uneven wear issue.  Both fronts and rears wore out by the end of the season.  I checked them all the time, but never had any type of issue.

last season, I tried pagid yellow (rs19) in the front and orange in the rear.  I wasn't very fond of this combo.  I had no initial bite when applying the brakes and the rear pads wore out very quickly.

For this season, I'm probably going back to the Hawk HT10's.

I'm going to see how my Pagid Orange's do this year and if I don't like them, I'll go back to the Performance Friction 97's all around.

I know its an older car but I run Pagid Orange Front and Rear and like them a whole lot more than the Hawks I ran before. Much better initial bite and they have helped me not over brake as much because I have more confidence in them. (notice I said as much...I still over brake)

Yo Mart!

1 set of pads for the season? Holly cow.

...I still over brake

Me too.

I want your pad wear!  How about  2 events on pads and maybe on a set of rotors. :X

[smankow]

Bob/Tony, I can vouch for Marty's brake wear.  He kept asking me to look at the pads to see what was left.  My stock reply was "do you use the brakes?"

Drive faster......................brake later...........
