[QUOTE="David Hester, post: 7772246, member: 6794"] Not a fan of EBC pads. Tried the greens years ago on a SVT Contour. No better or not as good as whatever Ford put on stock. I agree, get rid of the drilled rotors. I was just at the Rolex 24 and there were dimples and slots but no drilled rotors, I could see. Just too easy to break one. On a 800 lb formula car, maybe. I like Hawk pads. Used them for years. Mintex (Ferodo) on my Formula Ford car. HPS are a good street/ autoX/ 8/10 track pad. You can overheat them on track- especially if you insist on left foot braking, which I don't like-, but work well everywhere else. HP+ are good autoX/ 9/10 track pad, but they are noisey cold (squeal) and will wear rotors more quickly on a daily driver or street driven car. I used Blues front on my A/Sedan car for VIR and they do OK. I currently use DTC-70 front and HP+ rears (always have), but I have a manual brake bias valve. DTC-70 is overkill on just about anything. Dedicated track car, Blues front, HP+ rear and get a brake bias valve- you can plumb it under the hood. Sometime street car, HP+ front and rear. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
