Soft pedal after almost every track day

[tinkerputzer]

Measure them after every track weekend. Average 1mm consumed per ~6hrs of track time (we do 4-6 20-30min sessions/day depending on sanction). Considering they are $135/axle, can't beat them with a stick as far as I'm concerned. Everyone who takes my car out comments on how good the brakes feel and they are all running dtc70. I have yet to crack a rotor with them. I warped one rotor last weekend, but believe that's because I got a flat and didn't cool down. Actually came in an access road as to not block traffic and went straight to cold pit. Parked where the hot pads sat on the rotor until the wheel was cool enough to take off to change the tire.

What brand rotors are you running with those pads and are you running any ducting?

Great thread! Tyler Id start with the ducting as that seems to be something you would want no matter what brakes you have. I was planning on using dryer ducting from behind the factory vents, but Im curious now what you guys would recommend? Any good DIYs?

Rotors that have been turned several times, zero brake ducts, backing plates still on. I keep all the used rotors from cars that come in the shop when the client wants new, then have the machinist down the street turn them until they are out of spec.

Until they are out of spec? Why?

[tinkerputzer]

Turns them reuses them turns them until they can no longer be safely turned anymore. Not turning them out of spec and using them.

Correct.
