The front OEM pads are 7mm new. At 35k miles, I checked both fronts, and I still had 5mm left. I didn't check the rears.

That includes daily commuting panic stops, over 200 drag strip passes, and multiple autocross events.

What pads are you guys using for the track on the 05's+? Where did you get them? Part numbers (front & rear). My only complaint with this car is that the brakes fade on the track (could be my driving style )

22k from the front.... 29 from the rear. If you have 30k+ miles on OEM brakes.... consider yourself lucky.

Why not ask how many applications and duration and stregth per mile of use, since obviously an interstate mile is 1/10th of a city traffic mile!
