OK, guys - I don't remember who it was who borrowed by 10mm socket. I forgot to come looking for it before I left at the end of the day.

Who's got it?

I'd love to help. But as you know...Dave did mine. I can kinda do it but you wouldn't want to be my first brake job victim

Sure you can. I will watch you bitch about your own tools and I will not let Chase help either

I was telling Dave that I need a vented rear disc for my S. Or maybe I need a harder pad. Anyone know of a good track/street pad for the S?

Gary, as I told you, I heard the Carbotech Panther Plus is pretty good pads for track/street use.

It isn't the best website but this is the manufacturer's site.

Straight from the horse's mouth

"CARBOTECH PANTHER PLUS (1106):

A high torque brake compound delivering reliable and consistent performance over a very wide operating temperature range (150F to 1250F). Advanced compound matrix provides an excellent initial "bite", high coefficient of friction (0.54-0.56), and very progressive brake modulation and release characteristics. Panther Plus offers high fade resistance, rotor friendliness at all temperatures, excellent cold stopping power, and non corrosive dust. As a result, Panther Plus is an excellent choice for beginner-novice lapping day and high performance driver's schools on street driven cars using street or R-compound tires, eliminating the need to change brake pads at the track. Panther Plus has gained tremendous popularity with SCCA Prosolo/Solo2 competitors for its fantastic bite and modulation. In addition, Panther Plus has seen great success as a race-only pad on lighter improved touring and vintage race cars (ITC, etc). Not recommended as a daily-driving street pad due to possible elevated levels of dust and noise."
