Message Especially in tests with 4 or 5 cars where you test one car, park it and test another, it could easily be 10-20mins before they get back to any car for a second round...not including time spent bullshitting around with each other, taking photos for the article, etc.

I ran stock brakes with all the supporting mods I could find plus DOT4 fluid and tried at least 3 different non-track-dedicated pads and the brakes simply could not handle track abuse even on a 1 mile track with speeds never exceeding 85-90mph.

Were they fine for the street? Absolutely, I never had any issue really on the street apart from some pad brands being excessively dusty relative to their performance.

When I see people say their OEM brakes cant hack it and they aren't tracking the car, I always wonder what the hell they are talking about.

"What a curiosity our new political correctness has made of our public spaces. Let your sex tape loose on the Internet and
be rewarded with your own TV show; photograph a crucifix in a jar of urine and our museums will vie to exhibit it; occupy someone else’s
property and you will be hailed by the president for your keen social conscience. But call people who blow up, behead, and mutilate, “savage” —
and polite society will find you offensive."
--Jared Silverman
