First, please don't take this as criticism. I just have a question and want to make a point for anyone reading.

I'm wondering if you turned off TC and ESC. With them active, you may have been triggering them quite a bit. Also, type of course (I know you called it technical) and one's driving style has a lot to do with brake usage.

I found some interesting characteristics. With both TC and ESC can feel nannies kick in however I’d say Stinger ESC/TC allow the car to move around quite a bit. When TC off but ESC on car moves around nicely . ESC keeps rear end in check but allows more aggressive slip angles. Good mode for slower 2 nd gear turns. Faster turns everything off works fine.

Did you try it at all with everything off? And do you think TC/ESC contributed to the brakes fading?

Only have run AX not enough heat to fade.

Oh! The way I read it, it sounded like there were some issues.

I dont think these are "off the shelf" Brembos so not certain on the pads. I fear they are Kia specific and many of the aftermarket pads may be a bit slow to market.

They do look relatively easy to swap out, release the retaining pin and they should slide directly aft or fore to be removed.

Has anyone got brembo part numbers? Easy enough to find out.
