Subject: Re: News to me: Race compound pads for stock C4 brakes. by BillH on 2008/8/15 14:23:10 I looked at Willwood, yep better specs. Good info for the engineering mindset. In the end though, I think you just have to try some compounds or manufactures that peek your interest. A lot depends on your braking style and what friction curve and initial response fits you. I've spent a ton of money on Hawk blues and blacks and done some test days (not practice days)determining which I liked best. No ducting needed unless you're building a "full race" C4. Most C4,5,6 HPDE drivers overuse their brakes and end up with the heat problems. MSI in Sacramento just got a prototype of the Baer 6 piston setup that fits C4's with the HD rotors (13"). |
