Replace the pads.

Ferodo's will kill your discs if you go anywhere near a track and drive fast (aswell as being overpriced)

All I am saying is that I ran up against brake problems last year at Cadwell and thought long and hard about upgrading to the big brake type kits such as AP.

I will cut a long story short by saying, they are up to the job and can last full 30 min sessions on every track i have driven without doing anything other than slowing my down very well :)
