Only time I experienced brake fade on the street was when I was at the dragon, otherwise stock pads work just fine.

SOS lightweight directional vane rotors are back!

Need 2 more orders for front rotors. $110. They basically are the best rotors you can get for under $200/rotor.

Im curious to see some more testing by non biased customers. I like the design and almost bought a set of fronts when they first came out but they seemed to crack just as fast as a $20 blank (about 12 20 minute sessions). Its hard to justify the price when they're four to five times more expensive and will not last four to five times as long as a centric c-tek or other $20-$25 rotor.
