Are there brake test results available somewhere? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Currently have an '11 SS, and am looking into changing out brake pads to reduce the brake dust, but don't want to lose much in stopping power. Am interested in Hawk Ceramics, due to many good reviews, but I'd like to see results of testing against other options to see relative stopping distances, fade, etc.

My car is a daily driver, with backroad driving on the weekends. Every once in a while, I like to run it on the local drag strip.

I don't know of any tests but the ceramic's would work great for what you do.
