DS2500 take a fair bit of heating before they work properly, also they're carbon based and spark a lot, so they're sore on wheels, I used them on the back of my rally car a few years ago, with DS3000 on the front.

DS pads are also very snatchy in the wet, causing a lot of lock ups

For front road use as above 1144 are good, but again need a little heating.

UNDERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
OVERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
HORSEPOWER is how fast you hit the wall.
TORQUE is how far you take the wall with you.

Hi, I cant comment for kit cars and the way they will react differently but the ds2500 racing pads on my cupra r with stock brembo discs and calipers are bloody awesome. I find no noticeable difference between cold and hot. Who sells ferrodo pads for the wilwoods as i didnt realise there were any available other than mintex?
