Previous Rides were all lower power than the Camaro.
So i started slow... see chart below. It seems the way i make it around a road course is not conducive to brake longevity. :-\

Yeah, and each time you moved up in power. You increased weight.

I'm happy with the power/weight ratio of the Camaro.
I am NOT happy with the weight/brake ratio.

I was taught to brake lightly. Easy on, easy off. Don't go jumping on the brake pedal. When you jump on the brakes.The nose goes down too quick, and the rear wants to lift. Upsetting the balance. And when you release the brakes. You don't want to just lift, come up slowly. When you lift quick. The front springs will want to bounce the front up too quickly. Then you are playing around with your dampening setting trying to find a compromise.
