Pete
Thanks for that.. I have always used Metal Kings on every thing and never
noticed much in the way of disc wear but so many people (incl Terry) have
been telling me to try them that i think my next set will be Ultimates.
Actually I have the 4 spots on the front and the commonwhore fronts on the
rear (both on vented discs) and at short sprint type races and
motorkhana/autocross i have noticed that they take too long to warm up. Do
u need to warm up Ultimates as much? Are they cheaper? I'm going to do the
Qld datsun day at Lakeside shortly so I think the Metal Kings will be fine
for that..
cheers
Mick
