hi again
yesterday at WSIR, i braked really hard for really only two turns each lap, 3 
and 5.  
i noticed fade after only four or five instances of hard braking.  (i.e., the 
ability of the brakes to slow the car was reduced on each succesive 
application of the brakes). can i change the front and/or rear pads to reduce 
fade?  i know alot of folks have stated that the stock brakes should be fine 
for racing.  is this because they use different pads?  do the brakes that use 
the volvo calipers on the stock rotor suffer less fade?
thanks
s
