Al:

I used HT-10s early last year and was very happy with them... that is until I switched to Pagid Yellows (RS-19 compound). They're pricey, but they last forever and appear to be much easier on my rotors. I just bought another set last week as backups for the season. Paragon had the best price I could find ($265 and $285).

I also just picked up a complete set of Porsche rotors last week (front and rear) as spares for the season. Best price I could find was Sunset.

Thanks Glen. I was going to look into the Pagids because of the reasons you stated. Hopefully I'll see ya at NJMP with Schattenbaum, if I fix or replace my windshield in time.

I have been using pagids for the past 20 years I have tried a number of different pads but have never found ones that give the same feedback and ability to modulate as the pagids do.

I have been running Blacks on my car for the past 12 months, they are more agressive than the yellows but give amazing initial bite (probably the only area the yellows are lacking). They are a little hard on the rotors but at this stagethe rotors will last me 2 seasons of about 30 sessions a year so I am pretty happy.

Pagids all the way!!!!

Glen,

Your car must exist because I see it in your avitar; and you keep buying parts for it. However, I've yet to see the completed pictures

He's all about building up suspense. I'm looking forward to seeing it in person soon.

As of last Weekend, all exterior repairs/modifications are complete. Polished and waxed yesterday. The big "reveal" will be at Schattenbaum April 9-10. I'll post pics afterwards.
