They work well for anything...street, track, strip etc. They are in my opinion, simply the best you can buy.

"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.

+10 on the lyndall!!! Pads replace your stock pads with those scuff up the rotors and bleed the brakes while it at it! mine work pretty good after I upgraded.

I keep finding a small amount of brake fluid residue on the top front of the front master cyclinder. I did change it to chrome, but swapped it out to make sure that was not the issue. thinking its the gasket, but unsure.

the handle is also a bit loose, but I am going to go ahead and replace the pads anyway, and go to braided lines as well.
