Funny, I just did alot of research on the subject today, called BAT and talked a guy named Eric, got ALOT of info. He said the 1144 pads would be great for the street and track. These pads are desinged to work cold and hot, he said this was the only one that does this and performs well. He also said not to waste my money on rear brake lines, not nessessary because they do so little of the actual braking. He was a VERY big help! He also owns a SVT and has the Mintex 1144's that have lasted him 30,000 with half the pad left. I told him I like to drive red light to red light as fast as I can, he said ditto.
Anyway...after talking to him I am convinced. I also plan to buy the Premium rotors and brake lines for the front too.
Later,
Yeah, Eric will be really helpful until you want to return something that came with a serious defect. The rotors that came with my BAT Big Brake Kit were severely warped, and they (Eric was who I spoke with) would do nothing for me, except to tell me to go ahead and cut them. I will likely not be buying anything significant from BAT again.
