How did the brakes perform?

Also, I guess there is a conflict of interest here since your company sells BBK upgrades, but I'll ask for your opinion on the following anyway:

1. We've discussed the issue of multiple vs single piston calipers. Many have claimed that multiple pistons provide more consistent pedal feel due to more even application of braking force. Others are saying if the pads are stiff enough that should not be a problem for the single piston setup. What's your opinion/experience?

2. Do you think your average HPDE loving enthusiast would actually benefit from the higher heat capacity of the larger rotors? Can one really get the stock rotors up to temps during a 30 minute non-race session where even track pads such as RS-19s begin to fade? (Let's assume your average HPDE loving enthusiast has R-compound rubber).
