CMC Mustang brake pad suggestion

I will be purchasing a new set of brake pads for MSR-C and would like some suggestions on what to get. I have been running the Cobalt Spec VR's for the last year and loved them but Cobalt will not be able to supply new pads in time for Cresson.
I know alot of people are running Carbotech's and would appreciate feedback on your likes and dislikes, XP10's or 12's?

Any info. is greatly appreciated!!

go w/ the 10's.

10's.
For me 12's didn't provide a significant enough benefit worth the few extra dollars they run.
don't forget you can get them through Tony G on the west coast for a better price than anywhere else, period.

10's on front paired with 8's on the rear.

True... since it is for Mustang... shouldn't they be suggesting something like Autozone pads. :lol:

BTW... I haven't ran 10's yet, I am currently running XP9's.

I will send you a 'pm' with what I use, Michael. 8) I usually get an entire race season out of them.

Exactly ... WTF are you guys doing?

It's almost a week after the last race so we are supposed to stop hating each other, remember?

The group hug, honeymoon thing is over. Time to begin the internet bashing, ego deflating, internet babble.

The Autozone suggestion was a very nice start. Job well done, rookie.
