Your thoughts?

I’m left foot, as well.
I could get fade on any street, R, or slick tire I ran even with DS1.11 (after 20min), but I’m pretty damn tough on my brakes and I still have OEM rear brakes. Albeit, with GT3 air deflectors all around and protection plate cut outs.
When I switched to DS3.12, fade went away for my setup regardless of what tire I ran. If you have AP’s all around, the DS1.11 is probably good enough, but I love the feel of the 3.12 more than the 1.11.
As for the DS2500 on track, don’t do it. My comment about Watkins was it only took a few laps of dry line in a hard braking zone to crack what is essentially a high performance street pad.
