But that is also no problem with the standard pads I drove 5 consecutive laps with the standard pads with no issue... the just wear down fast

The CC are however not much better. They where gone in one weekend on the Ring. Personally I do not like the pedal feel with the CC (al lot of pedal travel) and I was not confident on the brakes. To be hones, with the OEM pads I was much more confident. And yes, the brake in was doneproperly

I will try an other set (as I ordered 2 sets) and see how these feel. I do not expect something different though. After this set is gone, I will try Performance Friction or Endless.
