Yes I did test the Brembo rotors, front and EBC Yellow Stuff race pads, front. They worked super. I got no vibrations and it stopped on a dime.
At RoadAtlanta 2 turns are very tricky. Turn 7 which may call that turn the "hairpin". Coming out of turn 6 into 7 I was easily around 90mph the car stopped but the ABS kick and release the lock several times.
The other turn is turn 10A is the turn after the back straigh, where I was getting into 10A at 115mph before the braking zone. At first I did not trust the brakes but after that, I went very deep into the turn and into the braking zone at 115mph could have gone a bit faster but we have a top speed for PDX sessions.
Overall I can't complaint the brake pads, Yellow Stuff, are good but 1/2 of them was gone after the end of the 2nd 20 minute session.
So I figure they should be good for another 2 twenty minutes session.
