Default Norwegian EP CTR throwing sparks!
Look at this. The pics are not of my car, but a fellow Club Honda Norway member. And before you ask, no he's not on worn out brakepads.

This looks crazy.

Is this normal under hard breaking? Never seen anything like that before

Yes it's flat black.

And some people over here think it might be because of hardcore pads and maybe a bit too soft metal in the discs.

I do not know.

It's probably soft pads, they tend to "bleed" off at high speed/hard braking.

I was gonna say I bet he has Wilwood brakes. That is a common thing with those brakes. Boosted Hybrid and MikeBoostedGSR both had those brakes and the same thing happened. Be careful those brakes wear out quickly.
