The local track to me is notorious for being a brake killer. You have a main straight that you brake from 110-120MPH down to 25MPH which then leads onto a small straight from 80-90 down to 20-25 with more slow corners leading back onto the main straight so the brakes never get a break(no pun intended) or even a good spot to cool down on the track.

Would a st40 front and rear throw off the bias too much, could I find a st40 kit for the front that would have larger rotor for the front?
Have your tried a higher temp track pad? PFC11 or PFC08?
