Might work for me, but that would be one hell of a commute for Rob

Are Porsche's sport brake pads a no-no for the street? I heard they take too long to heat up?

What is the best option for lower dust without sacraficing much (especially squeel)??

NC is not that far away... how far are you from the outer banks?

That is exactly the reason i use the stock pads. Forget concerns about dust, at least I would if I were you. Rejex your wheels and it doesn't matter. Even on my trackcar, all i need to do is wipe off the wheels with a dry cloth and they are instantly clean.

I'm in a suburb of Raleigh about 200 miles and it is straight east out of Raeigh to places like Nags Head, etc.

Eventually, the wife and I will have to head out there to shop for property. But right now, baby steps since we are finishing building out "dream house".

But at some point soon I am trailering the car up to the New York area tracks like Watkins Glen, etc and plan on calling up Chris and the rest of you Yorkers!

I mean, of course, man can live on VIR alone, but life is much greater when you experience new places with other enthusiasts!
