What!!! Ya wuss!! Must not be driving hard enough, why if you do it right 
they don't melt, they vaporize.

True story: a couple of years ago at Gingerman I wore out my Pagids. The 
only spare pads I had with me were PBR Deluxes (I know, not very smart) 
so that's what I put on. I got black-flagged after a few laps because 
there was so much smoke coming out for the front wheel wells they thought 
my engine was on fire. Wore the PBRs out completely and had to drive home 
on the metal backing plates. My wife, who was with me, wasn't at all 
amused. But you know, it's amazing how little you really need to brake if 
you plan ahead. I used the hand brake at stop lights.
