Very nice. I thought maybe the bedding instructions weren't included. My bad.

Oh it's all good. I was just a little confused. Just got done taking finals here at CU and my brain is fried. :lol:

Anyone know a good spot to go in order to bed the pads in? Have to do ten consecutive runs of 80mph to 10mph, with zero time in between as to not allow the pads to cool. Know of any good spots to pull that off?

US36 after the big hill into Boulder. Middle of the night of course so there isn't anyone on the highway.

In the HR area i can't think of anything long enough to allow for ten 80-10 runs.

I've always accelerated slowly between slow-downs. And you don't really need to do 80 mph slow downs. Just do a few more from 45 mph or so. After you've done 6 or so, the pads will be plenty hot and stinky. Do another six with increasing brake pedal pressure and they will be REALLY hot.

I bedded my EBCs in on Wildcat at night in HR. I had smoke rolling off them when I was done.

Then just make sure you can drive around for awhile without using them or coming to a complete stop to make sure they really cool down.

Sounds like a plan then. Thanks for the info. Expect to see me on Wildcat on Tuesday night doing just that. Haha.

Just watch your mirrors.
