Peter,
I'm going to need pads very soon, could you please get an update from Andreas on the timing for the rear pads? Also, I think I need some additional bite on my fronts than the RS-29's are giving me. I suspect that the weight of the Mustang (3620 lbs) could use a more aggressive pad than my Audi did (3200 lbs and less HP/TQ). If you could check with them as see what thay suggest please ?
Thanks,
Pete DeSisto

Hello Peter,
Just got of the phone with Andreas and he informed me that the pads should be in FL sometime next week. As soon as they get there I will contact you and you can then tell me how many pads you will need. Just FYI the compound will be called RS56 and its very similar to RS44 (Orange) that we have currently for most pads. This will be a exclusive pad that is also used by NASCAR for the Boss.
As to the fronts Andreas suggest switching to RS14 which will give you about 10% more bite, or RS15 which is about 20-25% more bite then the RS29 you are using.
Hope this helps,
Peter
