    It would be more prone to dislodging after driving through a pile of snow. Yeah, I don't have much faith in those screws. There should have been some sort of other security there. Maybe one of those plastic rivets that never wants to come out for the oil plug access panel...

    It depends on your driving style. If you're a beginner, you probably won't cook your pads, but if you're a faster driver than consider changing out your brake pads for something more track focused but streetable (like the Hawk HP+ or EBC Yellowstuff).

    It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.

    The first HPDE I did was with stock brakes and pads and they were fine. I got some brake fade but it was manageable

    Me, too. What does that make us? ... and various other bits and pieces the previous "techs" that worked on the car couldn't be bothered with re-installing.
