A couple months back I took my R56 factory JCW to knockhill to give it the same treatment. The brakes were fantastic, no fade, no blue smoke, no squeeling pads and bear in mind I was approaching the corners faster in this car than I was able to do in the S. I really would recommend the brakes if you like to give your car some sport. God just typing this makes me want to go drive the car. Sadly I can't as I'm in Morroco sweating my tits off in this 41 degrees.
