[QUOTE="Norm Peterson, post: 16187591, member: 193960"] Lockers apparently can behave like an open diff, but only when you're coasting. They rather abruptly lock up solid once power is applied. Kind of an all-or-nothing situation, step change/no transition from one state to the other. On brakes, it's easier to do the pad and possibly rotor swapping at home if you're going to run a two-pad strategy. Don't intentionally put yourself under the gun to hurry through a brake job in paddock. The other option - as long as you don't drive the car in really cold weather and before you're up there running lap times with the really fast guys anyway - is to run a lower-level track pad all the time and put up with the dust, some noise, and severe rotor wear if you choose pads badly. Sometimes on the cooler days it may take a stop or two to get the good bite back, but that's easy enough. G-locs and Carbotechs up through R12 or XP12 (respectively) that I personally have experience with are among the least abrasive track-capable pads in street driving, Hawks may be among the worst (my experience, anyway).
