Or you can just brake in the pads and rotors really quick. As a matter of fact I do this all the time, and prefer to do my brake job in the evening for this reason. 5, 70-5 mph hard brakes, no abs, then to the garage to cool overnight. Like magic the next day.

Almost like its touching the floor, dangerous advise, because when it does touch the floor that is all the braking you get.

To everyone else who cares about safety, if it feels like your brake pedal is going to touch the floor, stop driving!
