Yeah Bob, there's nothing wrong with the brakes. It's a characterist of the pads. They're agressive and more suited for mild track use. Those (most of us) who want less dust are using Posi Quiets from DaveZ.

For those who may not be aware, the brake TSB and the subsequent slotted rotors are a DIRECT result of these chat sessions.
