....Meaning that they grab? Or that you haven't got used to more direct pedal response?

What do you mean "they'll get better"?

....I really do hope that you're saying you'll be drinking Warrington's finest AFTER you're home and not driving having already consumed a skinful which you are soon about to chunder :sick:



Apologies if I've misinterpreted your post but it wasn't clear. :smiley:

God no, I don't drink and drive.

I'd been out on the lash and had a quick nosy at the forum on the iphone when I got in whilst eating... well, I think it was a burger? I don't make sense at the best of times, never mind when drunk.

I've bedded them in yesterday somewhere nice and quiet, and to do so you have to make 6 stops from 60 pressing increasingly harder on the pedal. Then drive for a few minutes at 50 to cool them down. On the last stop which was as hard as I could press the pedal I was pulling on the locked seatbelt, such was the force.

Pedal is very progressive indeed, not hard to use them in traffic at all. Power is very strong though. The instructions state I have to wait for around 250 miles for the build up of material on the new discs to be fully ready for hard (track) usage, so they can only get better.
