Sounds like I might just make the jump and go straight for the xp12/10 combo or the winmax equivalent if you're also experiencing some brake fade (considering my car is ~300lbs heavier).

While my stock calipers were on, I had XP10s in front and they were smearing on my rotor towards the end of the session at t-hill west, but i also had tiny 12" rotors prior to the akebonos.

You're right, there aren't very many of us out in the norcal tracks!
I'll definitely come say hi if I run into you...or will you be at the svzg summit run?
yeah looks like carbotech smearing is common? i end up getting hella vibrations when i brake and I checked my rotors, they're not warped or anything.

I think W6 is the equivalent

I want to come to the summit event but last time I was there I almost lost my bumper because of scraping, but I will try to make it out to Livermore for food after
