Here's actually a good shot showing the groove mostly built up on a concrete track... you can even see the darker areas where it's built up more at the seams... and of course the marbles up out of the groove.

In most of the NASCAR races it takes roughly the first 100 miles of the race for the track to fully rubber in... from there it's pretty stable assuming atmospheric conditions remain the same (they never do.)
cool pic, thanks for sharing

yeah, it should give us all helpful data... i'll be sure to share results on my AP Racing BBK install thread


Here are comments on these pads from another forum:

...... Rating = 9
...... cf = 0.62
...... In every way, an outstanding track pad, and the high cf results in a very firm pedal. Though cold friction is also excellent, don't ever think about using this pad on the street. When cold, I've never heard any pad squeal louder; it's borderline painful. Because the iron content of this compound is >50%, the brake dust is more-or-less corrosive to aluminum wheels (without a clearcoat) and can quickly stain them badly. Even when using these pads only on track, wipe your wheels clean every evening.
