Default Carbotech pads

Just put the carbotech pads on the car sat. I cannot believe how little
dust comes from these pads. I know they are expensive, but quite worth
not having to clean the wheels everyday. Highly recommend them

How do these compare performance-wise? I know the OEM brakes have been criticized for fade, which I would think is primarily due to pads.

I've tracked the car at Streets of Willow. There is very little brake pad fade. Even at +100 degree weather and over 100mph to 40mph.

So are you talking about the OEM brakes or the upgraded to the carbotech?

I haven't noticed brake fade on my car but then again I haven't had it on a track.
