Need a race/track brake pad for my car, help!!!

[chris82]

I currently have some low dust pads on my car right now, and my local shop says they're no good on track. So I need a set of pads and I need to order them today. Anyone have recommendations? Looking for dedicated track/race pads only. Trying not to spend more than $250 on the fronts (not going to buy rear pads). I'm seeing all kinds here: http://topbrakes.com/c/car-items/995...nufacturer_id=

I'm looking at the Hawk HT-10, HT-60, and HT-70 but I'm leaning towards the HT-10 because it says a smooth initial bite, which will probably be good for me since I've never used a track/race pad before.

What you think?

I appreciate your timely responses

you want a good race/track pad? go for hawk hp+. I only got good things to say about these pads performance wise. till know they are the best I had. the only thing that bothers me is the squeaking they make when stopping slowly while driving it normally on the streets. that is the only drawback they have IMO.

I actually have Endless MX72 pads on my Brembo brakes. They are a bit expensive and are squizy when cold, but damn ... The brake force is so good Would recommand them.


Edit : Pagid RS29 are very good too.

I'm using PFC 08s. I have to say the cold braking ability is good and the track abuse on them makes them better. I COULD not brake late enough using them last weekend at a very high speed road course. going from 140 to 70 in a second was making my tires squirm and car get light in the rear. Phenomenal performance IMO, got the set F&R for <$400. They do sound like a school bus or a freight train though so keep that in mind.

Pretty smooth initial bite, good modulation ability

DTC70 and PFC08 have my vote.
