Default All things brakes,VIR

I guess I will be needing to do something regarding 8/9 at vir. I will be calling carbotech tommorow if they are open. Do I need new bearings to install new rotors? I am tring to decide between the panther and P+. I see dave is getting the P+'s, are those going to be a track only pad for you? I have never bled the brakes before, whats needed for the job? I will reread the haynes tonight, or at least the section on brakes. There is a fluid thread in the comp forum now, but I would like some more opinions on that too.

on this subject, did we ever come to a consensus on upgrading 5G Accord front brakes? Did FastBrakes ever come up with a prototype?
