Nick:  I'm using Carbotech's new Panther Plus on the front of my TR4A.  So
far I've done 3 SCCA vintage events (2 days each) with little apparent wear
to either pads or rotors.  I have the Kelated Metallic on the rear.  The
compound selection was made after a lengthy discussion with Larry at
Carbotech.
Cheers, Don
