Judson,

I tried Hawk Blue on the Neon in Targa Newfoundland this year and had to change Rotors twice in 400 miles of hard racing.  Perhaps they need to be hot all the time to not eat rotors...... 

Really happy with the Porterfield.  I had to specify the pad thickness and the rear drum ID.  I had some back and forth with them on the first order.  Sent them the rear shoes in advance, cause they didn't have any cores.  I don't know what the HPS is, and it's not in my old Porterfield cataloge

My Spax seem to be holding up OK.  No problems so far.

With only a roll bar (reinforced all around, and with a front facing brace), I'm limited to when and where I can drive it.  Even if permitted, I turn down some events for my own safety sake.  I know what happens in a roll-over (did it in the Neon), and a cage is the way to go !!!

Good luck, and have fun,

Pete
