Like Tbone I too have experienced brake failure while roaring into a corner. I agree that it is hard to let go of something that is working well for me. I'm using the Porterfield R4 pad now and have never experienced anything that stops better. The downside is one set of pads will eat about 2 sets of rotors. I have always been willing to buy new rotors just to have the dependable braking. Do you know how Cobalts compare to the Porterfields for torque and heat range?
