Back brake pads

34,000 miles, fronts are fine, backs are shot. Never drifted and only use the parking brake for parking. Traction control eat them up?

Wow. Mine lasted 65k, and wore fairly even. The fronts usually wear faster...
Yaw control is a more likely culprit, as traction control generally works by cutting the throttle. You also can't turn YC off.

Forgot about yaw control. I drive a lot of twistes aggressively. You're probably a 1000% right. Thanks! Rep given.

Upgrade your diff to a Wavetrac or an OS Giken. It will help.

Install YC control switch ? It's lateral G that triggers it

That is why I said to upgrade the diff. It will give you better traction when you get back on throttle and limit how much the Yaw sensor intervenes. That was my experience.
