carbotech AX6 in the front, stock pad in the rear? would something like that work for autox? or is there enough heat building up in the pad that an XP8 front and AX6 rear might do the trick? in my solstice, i run AX6 front, XP8 rear, since the bias is slightly forward (and there is no funky brake assist/abs computer programming), but my understanding is that it's the opposite in the 370. i love the moderate initial bite (compared to RS4 and HP+ pads) and linear braking characteristics of the CT's, and the amount of heat they can handle!
