I think you're right... How could I have forgotten to talk about the brakes ! hp+ pads

Thing 1... I could almost swear I'm getting a variation in stopping force from left to right... may just be that I'm trail braking and feeling it step out ever so slightly... but just didn't feel entirely balanced... could be related to thing 2

Thing 2... When they were at lower temps, they stopped really really well and predictably... but later in my sessions I was getting MAJOR fade to the point that ABS was kicking in and I was grinding to a halt going into turn 9, which is a 100+ degree left hand transition from infield road course to nascar circuit... I commented earlier that the stock rotors are fine, but now I don't think so... not at all... NEED SLOTTED ROTORS !
