I haven't been here for a bit. Hmmm... Thanks for pointing it out... I'm currently on work travel, I'll check mine out when I get home.

Yes...there have been some developments Bit of hard driving produced some unwanted results lol

Also Im slowly ticking off the things needed for some light autoX racing in the future and on the list was the brake pads and rotors.

The brake upgrade came with spme unknown chinese brand "CAC" brake pads and had some rust spots and scratches on the braking surface even after some heavy footed stops and lively driving through the windys for 6 hours and I don't pad slap and so the rotors are at the brake shop getting machined and I have ordered some Bosch pads.

I still get a staff discount at one of the part stores and so thats what pushed me towards the Bosch Blue pads at $117 front and rear versus Toyota which was $267 front and rear.

What type of brake pads do you guys run? and what have you used for competition racing?
