01's are good I hear.

I have spoken to too many owners who mixed feelings about the Carbotech pads and Carbotech treatment towards their customers.

Spoke with an instructor at yesterday's event who also had a bad experience with the Carbotech earlier compounds. Carbotech did not replace the pad even though later on it was discovered there was a problem with the compond. So he switched to Hawk Blues.

I know a few that use Willwood H's which I hear are awesome pads. Just expect to be replacing your rotors quite often

I'll need to check stock on the PFC "01 Pads for the C5 & C6. I believe that we currently have one set of fronts and two set of rears in the store. The front and rear bought together are about $500 and shipping almost anywhere in the US is about $15 - 20.
Call me at the store if you want them.

Mark and Terry, thanks for the back up set of PFC-X pads delivered
to the track today. Terry's Z sounded fantastic going down the front
and back straights but I never did get time to hitch a ride.
