Which are not one of the Imported pads listed by Pagid, and why ned is
keeping the last 8 sets he has (even at 300.00 pr).....  It is a .55 cf
Euro-racing compound pad that, next to ceramic, is prolly the highest cf you
will find in the q apps......  And they DO eat rotors, esp if you haven't
done any cooling at the rotors......  I have a set that has prolly 1/2 the
tread left on them after 2 years, but it cost me 2 sets of rotors X 4 cuts
each.......   They also cause enough heat to boil the brake fluid under hard
use......  Another argument for the CC's with the ceramic barrier......  I
noticed that the CC's have a cf app in the box that shows .55 for the sub
2000# cars, kinda puts in perspective those Pagid Blues.......  That weight
would be nobody's q on THIS list......
