For those tracking, how are the brakes performing generally (ignoring the lack of appropriate pad compounds)? someone in another section thought that the rear brakes were actuating even with MDM and TC off. any truth?

Also, does swapping the front pads use the same procedure as on the F80? e.g.: 2 pins holding a spring loaded clip?

what about rear? does the caliper need to be removed? sorry if this has been covered elsewhere.
The brakes are excellent. I haven't been on track yet but those who have think they're very sufficient. I'd imagine with track pads and fluid they should be more than enough brakes for most track work
