How about a PDF of the procedure for swapping out brake pads on the C7?

Had a track day in the Pacific Northwest@ the Ridge Motorsports park in Shelton, WA. My first time out in my C7 2200 miles. Had carbotech XP10/XP8 pads on along with the rotor rings , ATE DOT 4 brake flush, 15-50W Mobil 1 oil.
Great initial bite and no fade after 20-25 min sessions. Still learning this car so max braking at end of straight was 120 down to 50 before uphill turns. Also end of short straight from 90 down to 35 before going downhill at the ridge corkscrew complex. Car did great. My other car for comparison is a Porsche 911 GT3 with PCCB brakes. Very comparable for stopping ability.
Next time out can go deeper before braking; but I wanted to get an initial feel for the car.
BTW alternated auto rev match and manual H/T between sessions (6 for me; skipped last one)
Thanks Adam
