Listened to a number of episodes tonight. Definitely car guy orientated programming, informative with easy to understand matrixes like the “leg hump scale”. 👍

What I like most about the PCCB (on any Porsche model) is because of this additional bite, the PCCB ABS programs are a bit less intrusive (compared to steel), so if you swap for steel rotors, you get less aggressive ABS which is better for the track. My old 997.1RS had PCCB (converted to steel) and had less ABS/Ice mode intervention than stock steel. Not any different than why for Spec 987 racing, they let 987.1 owners re-program to PCCB ABS in PIWIS for slightly less ABS jump in.
After being on Grand full NCM this weekend with DS1.11 pads, and having way too many ABS interventions (on both Cup2 and Pirelli DH takeoffs), I'm going to see if I can have my ABS switched to PCCB mode as well. Now I kinda wished I would have opted for PCCB instead of steel. I honestly forgot about this little tidbit of information at the time of my order.

That is exactly why I like pads which give a similar pedal effect. The PFC08 required a lot of effort, but allowed an aggressive jump in without ABS kicking in, and then you spend the remainder of the brake zone trailing off. It encourages more efficient braking. Was great for 911, and street ABS. Still use it in my 987.1. These new generation of pads, all with uber-flat, super high torque curves still just don't play nice with street GT ABS, IMO. And I'm not somebody who jumps on the brakes, you can literally tip-toe in on DS1.11 and the ABS jumps in.

Hey guys - here's the trailer to our first episode. We'll be releasing the individual car laps then the whole thing.
Yes that's me with the bald spot and walking boot. CJ got me with the leg sweep.

I'm testing a set of DS2500's for Essex. They should be somewhere in between stock pads and DS1.11. The question is, how long will they last?
This car has plenty of cooling, so if you can't fade stock pads, you aren't going to fade anything more track-focused.
