Great post!

Has anyone done a GM retrofit to CCB?

I could have sworn that I posted some updates, but apparently not. Short version, the pads were not great at the track. They were fine during infield "low speed" braking, but at the end of the front straight, slowing from 140ish to 70ish, they'd get down to about 100 okay but then the pads felt like they'd overheat and stopping power dropped off noticeably. They also left some marks on the rotors, but those came off after the drive home. The seller said he's going to get me a set of "next step more aggressive" brake pads that should do better on the track. I'll find the write-up I did.. I must have posted it on FB.. and the pics and will add them, but this is the meat and potatoes of it.
