Now, the only drawback was that the pads lasted exactly 2.5 races. But, that's about 3 hours of pure racing.
I did try XP12 in the past. Braking power was great, but as you mentioned they died after 8X20 min on the track. Not the best value for money.
But again....spending $2000 on a BBK is not cheap either...
