Most pads that NEED beeding have a printed procedure in the box...are they race or street pads?

My Pagid Oranges needed me to do multiple stops from 80 mph down to 50, three or four times. Then there were some slow speed procedures as well.

I still had some caking issues at Willow Springs.....I don't think you will have many issues at an AX....unless it is a continuous lap format like they do at Irwindale....

These are Pagid pads, but no bedding procedures, just normal R&R instructions...Street pads

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Mike - I was taught to use one of the practice sessions and just "drag" the pedal while going slowly in 2nd or 3rd gear for almost a lap, then when everthing was nice and hot, to do increasingly hard applications until you were lapping at 7-8/10ths. Always seem to work for me without glazing.
