Craig, does PF make a 350x28mm rotor that would work with the DD v1 hat?

Dave is correct. One quick note on the 01 compound is they still last longer than most pads out there since they are usable down to the last bit of pad material. I still have a set of 01s from my GT3 with half the pad material left. This is after about 600 track miles and about 1000 street miles on them. So for those that like the 97s you will like the 01s a lot better. There is a big difference in the improvement of the pads.

Also I might add that the only reason I took the 01s out of the car was to test the 06s out. Still using the 06s.

Wonder if they make the 01's for my old beast and if there is a $ differential...

I need new pads for my 993 4S (90% track, 10% street) and are not sure if a "race pad" is street drivable enough. It appears that you are happy with the 06 pads for dual use. How are the on the street?

I have the 06 pads and drive on street no problem also drive to the track, on track, then home works fine. I called PFC to ask if street driving would wear the rotors faster and they said no it's ok to drive on the street with them.
The 06's do last a long time on the track.

I prefer 06 to the 97. Much better bite and last much longer. The 01s ate my rotors pretty quickly, but they had GREAT bite. So, I use 06 F/R as a good compromise.

Do they make a DD for a Big Red equipped 965 size rotor?
