[QUOTE="David Hester, post: 9858478, member: 6794"] I used DTC-70' front/ HP+ rears on my A/Sedan car I ran in SCCA. Yes, DTC 70's don't fade, but do take some temperature to get them to work well. Not the safest thing on the street. I got better all around braking from HT-14's (not available anymore) or HT-10's especially on tracks with less braking needed. DTC 70 work great from 140 to 80, but not so good when braking from 60-30, if they weren't already hot. I even had good luck with Hawk Blue's at VIR, where there is only one REALLY hard braking area (turn 1). Check out the Hawk Performance site. They have a chart that tells what temperatue range each pad works best. Just be realistic in your choice and needs. [I][B]They are very dusty though.[/B][/I] Yes. yes they are. Also, they are real hard on rotors if they aren't up to temperature. Much like grabbing the rotor with 2 rocks in the caliper. That is the reason the HP+ may be a better street/light track day pad. Even the HP+'s can squeal and grind when cold on cold rotors, like stop and go traffic. Something to think about in Sweden. [/QUOTE]
