Brake pad selection is not a problem for me as I inherited a lifetime supply 
of DS11s from Jeff Snook.

Since I rarely use my brakes...sometimes I have use the accelerator pedal one 
more time just to get to the corner....I expect my cache of DS11s to last for 
quite some time.

But just in case, I would like to hear the latest thought on the best brake 
pad material.

OK, guys it's been a while and I know many things have changed, but what is 
the hot lick in brakes these days? Should I find some Ferodo DS11 pads (what 
I used to run in the olden daze) or should I look toward some of the newer 
carbon types? DS11 has always worked for me, but if some of the newer stuff 
is better it isn't too late to learn a new trick.

Does the carbon stuff leave dust everywhere? Do I need to worry more about 
cooling? Less? Weird bedding techniques? (No, with the brake pads you 
pervert...)

These will be for the Duke of Oil, a '65 TR4A

lemme no your tales of "whoa"...
