This is obviously a procedure to be run on a closed course / controlled environment.
all that is bullshit. i never bed my pads before a track day since after a few hot laps on track pads, the bedding in process happens by itself - granted if there are a few sections that require hard braking turn after turn. if anything just ride the brakes on the outlap.

the juttering for me happens because when i switch back to stock pads, it is the friction due to the difference in material on the rotor from the track pad and the stock pad. it goes away as the material from the track pad is scraped off. either just leave the track pad on for a few days so it scrapes off the material (since track pads dont get to temp in city driving) or let it happen slowly with the stock pad.

in this situation the juttering was happening during the event, prob due to uneven transfer of pad material. it happens. no big deal.
