Run those chick-lets, Those are fine. Try not to go to full metallic thats a little tough on the rotters.6-5mm toss em. I never had as much luck with pagid ( I ran the orange).I prefer PF's and hawks.

The Hawks I've used (HP+, HT10) have cracked/chunked but not to the point that they weren't usable....never a problem with PF97s.

you probably were very hard on the brakes and didn't give them enough cool down time before you parked it. however, they are still good and i would just keep using them. some ppl throw them away at 5mm, but i run my right to the backing.

^ if you worry about your brake pad, wait 'til you see mine. you probably faint and freak out.
sometimes i use the backing plate as the pad. that's usually when i set my best laps, less brakes.
you should come out to a DE event with PCA GGR. the next one is 8/1
