My mechanic is in claxton bay and I used Maccauly road to properly bed the brembo rotors/Hawk pads combo.. Got quite a few 30mph stops, 45mph stops and finally 60mph stops...
Did it about 3 or 4pm without any trouble..

Didnt take the time to let it cool for half hour though.. I wasnt parking there at all, but I figured the highway would do the cooling for me..
