Hi,
New here, greetings to the Fiesta community !
Porbably a newbie question but I have a Mk7 ST, stage 2, upgraded rotors on the front and Yelow stuff pads on the front. Rear brakes are full stock. So my question is, I do a bunch of fast driving in mountain roads (we have magnificent ones here in Switzerland) but sometimes I feel like I'm maybe starting my runs (always after at least 15 to 20 minutes of mostly highway) a bit to quickly. And I my braking power fades away during those progressively to the point that I just need to cruise around because yeah, don't wanna die yet. Do you need to have like legit a few warm runs before sending it, regarding the brakes ? My modest guess is that I either kinda burnout the pads to quickly or the rotors (or both) ? Each times it happened to me (only a few times), weather was decently hot, nothing extreme. I also don't start my runs with downhill segments, happened last time going uphill. Knew about warming up your tyres but still kinda new to brake "science"
.
Thanks in advance
