Re: Quick question. Best front pads for track use?
Another good option if used only on track-----> Hawk blues (9012)
I use HP+ though because I'm too lazy to change them out between events and the HP+ are great on the street if you don't mind washing your wheels ever time you buy gas. (If not more frequently ) The one thing to be careful about is that the pads you choose have a high enough heat tolerance that they do not transfer pad material to your rotors. OEM compound pads will melt and transfer to the rotor surface causing pedal throbbing and steering wheel shake during braking.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR4&url=%2Fbrakes%2Fbrakes.jsp%3Fmake%3DHa wk%26amp%3Bmodel%3DBlue%2B9012%2BTrack%2BOnly%2BPa ds">http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/brakes.jsp?make=Hawk&model=Blue+9012+Track+Onl y+Pads</a></li></ul>
