Carbon ceramic brakes

[mfain]

I have CCBs on my ACR and my C6 Z06/Z07, and I never have trouble with either one. I track the ACR hard and street drive the Corvette. The Corvette's brakes will probably outlast me. You have to do a proper brake burnishing - period. I use the Dodge process rather than GM's because I don't like the idea of coming to a full stop (50 times) with your foot on the brake (and pads against the rotor). Dodge uses a higher speed, less repetitions, and slowing to 20 mph vice a full stop. The rotors do fine unless you wear the pads too far or overheat and damage them with a bad burnishing process - then the pad roughs up the rotor and the wear starts and accelerates from there. As far as track performance goes, the CCBs are superb - never fade and are consistent as hell. The reduced unsprung weight is a nice side benefit. With that said, I am swapping the StopTechs (never used) out on my dedicated track car project for big AP Racing brakes. For pure track use their performance appears to be unmatched.
