For a road car that does a couple of trackdays they are 100% fine.
Yep, I'm not saying Alcons are bad by any stretch - its just I'm trying to understand why APs are favoured. If the pedal travel issue is removed from the equation with pre-load and everything else is like for like (lines/fluid/pads) - do APs and Alcons become effectively the same?

Pedal travel is a personal pref I guess, I would prefer to have shorter travel - other drivers will prefer longer travel.
