No Dave, mine actually has the more aggressive pad on the rear. That was the only way I could get any kind of rear brake, with the 49F/51R weight ratio, and 275F/335R tire stagger. The car still needs more rear brake, that is why I'm changing the masters.

Greg, I started out with 12" C4 brakes. Drag racing the car, and autoX, I thought it was the sh!t, stock pads, Dot3 fluid and all. I took it on my first road course, about 15 laps in, while doing my typical bonzi down the straight, came to the turn and no brakes, at all. Thank God there was a lot of run off, couldn't even get to slow down. That's when Todd from Baer gave me a quick school on how stupid I was. One of those lessons you never forget.
