Had a set of Race Brake pads with DBA crossed drilled and slotted rotors Worked great but fell apart in the end. Went to use brakes one day and the pad material just fell out from the rear!
Left me with metal to metal.which wasn't too good ror the rotor!
Checked the rest of the pads and found the rears all bad (pad material crumbling and metal backing plates badly rusted). One pad fell apart when I removed it!
Could have cooked them while at Darling Park but that was a fair while ago. Fronts seemed OK and until the time the pad dropped they were pulling up very good. Have been told since should have checked pads fairly regularlly.Have now put on ECB Green Tuff and though pedal a bit softer,pulls up quite good.
Am now waiting to see what R.D.A.are bringing out for the AU1's! :eclipsee_
