At least I worked out the date problem I had.....rang to ask how to change the date format on MYOB to be told that it could be changed under settings on my laptop....DOH..... did I feel dumb or what....after that I made sure I didn't touch anything sharp!!!

SBS makes very good brake pads. A lot of racing teams use SBS and a lot of our V8 supercar teams are now switching to them.

As far as Endless is concerned I think they are only average at best but at the same time cost $$$$. I Just know too many people that tried them and then pulled them out because they were not that impressed!

But hey brakes are one of those things that everyone seems to like something different!

Ignore what people are using in the commerical business like V8 super car.

1) They are sponsored - they are hardly paying for them

2) They are more hi end stuff that is not in the production line.

--- Endless has raced in the ameature series in HK and Macau for years. They are reputable.

The mistake that people makes is chosing the compound that suits them. They are saving a bit of the penny because the exhange rate and transport cost is high. They can only afford the SSS and NA series which are not meant to be on the track. I burnt the caliper paint in sprint days - and they are rated for 450 degree C. Imagine what your pad is like when it is rated around 550.

With slick tyre you have to get something big in number - like the 700 degree mark. Which their carbon metallic comes in good. Their semi metallic are even better and people in HK has used it for road everyday use.

I will conclude by saying that people here just have used the wrong compound. My friend in SA did too.

That is why Project Mu is so good - the mid range products are good for track and road.

My "adviser" spends 10 to 13k per year (of their own money!) on brake pads for the racing "fleet". So I just took his advise and got the Endless.
