    they take longer to warm up, but then have a higher "destroying" temp Lol. Should be just about right for road and occasional track use!

    Arn't the 1155's illegal though because they are pants when not warmed up properly?

    Alex - you wont need to.

    You dont need to Lee, but you could think about getting a bigger one for more responsive braking.
