What car/model have you got and what are you planning on using it for? Any track/airfield days?

New Age 4 pots so MUCH better than standard classic STi set up. Standard Discs, never had warming up issues, they were very good when the car was warm enough to boot it. I am sure there are better pads and I have no comment on fade issues. All I know is they felt as good as my Brembos running standard pads/discs/fluid. Just do front and rear at the same time as I believe there are issues when you just change fronts for example.

I don't brake on roundabouts Chris, well I do if you count 3rd.

Drilled discs are not usually recommended for track use due to cracking issues.

Grooved are fine.

I did do 3 laps @ Snetterton with no issues with these Godspeed discs . . . . .
