Anyway after all that i did a short track day with it that way too.. a tight slower place that aint too hard on brakes.....I did 3 sessions, probably 30-40 min runnin time...only problem seemed like the ABS was confused goin in to some of the corners...mostly blind off camber types..to be expected i spose..How do ya turn them things off anyway ..The ABS? I'm from the old asbestos school and not used to havein the car thinkin for me...Hell its been 25 yrs since I've done any o this kinda stuff..I'm learnin all over again n havein a Ball....
Anyways I need One Front PAGID YELLOW Pad...996 GT3 Front... or a bunch a 1/2 used ones I could Rotate..
Or Craig see what ya can find out from the Pagid guys...I'm sposed ta be runnin again on July 21.. so I got a little time yet...
Thaks for the thoughts

I do not know you personally but just reading about this event makes me not want to share the same track with you. I am not trying to pick a fight or anything but I personally take life safety very serious. Please, always, double and triple check and TECH your car. It is for your well being and for those around you.
Anyway, my 2 cents about the whole situation. I am glad you found your pad and will pray for your safety.
