Sounds right - I always though it was a heat thing but Tyrone would be the one who knows, no doubts.

Check your rear calipers aren't seizing though...
Absolutely true - race pads will not work when at normal road temps and the rears do so little work they may not even really be getting hot at all. HP+ pads are not that high in co-efficient though so they should be OK. My guess is they are not adjusting properly. I've never had to adjust rear calipers on the race cars - and the SE's handbrake actualy works!
It wasn't a hot vs cold issue he talked about. It was a sliding vs static CoF issue.
