Meh, I figure that's what the stereo is for :P

Frankly if the car stops better I don't care if the car sounds like I had beans for dinner when I hit the brakes :D

As you know from the "demo" drive you had in my car last year the EBC rotors and EBC pads on my Fusion have plenty of stopping power (which does not fade based on dozens of track days last summer) ... and this combo has remained smooth and quiet throughout. I'm now on my second set of pads but still plenty of meat left on the rotors.

I don't know about the Hawk pads, but the EBC rotors are fantastic IMHO.

True, that was a rather enlightening test drive last year and seeing you at Mosport was what finally pushed me over the edge to doing a serious brake upgrade.

The Hawk pads were fantastic once they had a good stop in 'em (lucky me that I have to deal with a two level parking garage with several stops needed ;))

I figure I'll get at least a few years out of the Hawk pads, unless I find a source of cash that gives me access to more than a couple of supervised track days.
