Good point, Overdrive. Certainly our cars come with fantastic brakes. And they are WAY more capable in the braking department than a car would ever need on the street.
With Hawk HT-10s and nice street tires on the track, the otherwise stock brakes perform exceptionally well. If I had to pick a nit, however, I would say the OEM drilled rotors tend to crack more than I like over time with repeated track use. My rotors need to be replaced due to the wear they have incurred. That said, they are also unsafe to use on the track anymore because of the long cracks emanating from the holes. Because of this, I'll be going with Performance Friction two-piece rotors for the front next time.
