EBC pad disintegrated during normal braking...

[pmezo33]

I had this happen to me once.  I didn't install the pads on the clips correctly and the brakes were stuck riding on the rotors as I drove.  The pads were in constant contact with the rotors as I drove and the heat disintegrated the pads. 

Even with cheap pads, this isn't normal if everything is working correctly.

I recently outfitted my murdered out SUV with their top of the line slotted/drilled rotors, & brand new "orange" pads.

Although slightly different vehicle (& pad)..... no problems thus far.

When I did rock their "yellow" track pads on my SHO (before having upgraded to the Wilwood's) I also experienced no issues with them either.

Even though their "red" pad is a little lower on performance spectrum than either of the above, certainly shouldn't of went "poof" as you've described.

I concur with others, EBC's presented good customer service previously, so we'll collectively keep our fingers crossed for 'ya.

Where are the pics of the murdered out suv?

I'm not the type to reveal my entire hand now.....

Tsk tsk tsk.

Maybe when I return from Costa Rica if I feel so inclined.

Or maybe you will drink too much in Costa Rica and reveal said hand?
