Steve, there are a few things you can do. Different pad compounds can be used, but it's really tricky. If not done right, you'll have a change in brake bias with temperature (not always a bad thing, but you could potentially have a change in bias in different places on the same lap

). Brake ducts in the front only can help. Of course, if all else fails, you can go straight to the water mist/front brake ducts (increasing the cooling ability of the front brakes)

. My plan is to over-cool the fronts (if that's possible) and then balance fron there.
Mark, I haven't seen any recent pics of that thing. I bet it looks killer. You got rear wheels on that thing yet? Backspacing?
