this is very useful.. despite all previous explanations it was difficult for my tiny brain to get straight.
the part about you being able to refinish the ceramics is also a huge value.
Thank you.
RB is fully committed to CCM brake development beyond street applications. YES - For heavy track application with CCM rotors.
One of the major deficiency we have learned, that's holding the CCM popularity back is finding an adequate brake pad that can withstand the higher heat of a CCM rotor w/o giving up the brake torque consistency (COF) and losing the durability (wear).
This leads us to develop the sintered pad dedicated for this purpose and we are glad to report that based on our final track tests by GT-R and ZR1 track drivers this week, it looks very promising.
Anyone interested in tracking the development and review, comparison with other known compounds can follow this thread in GT-R forum:
In Quest of Ultimate Brake Pad for GT-R..With CCM Rotors
The other important criteria to maintain an optimal CCM brake system w/o costing "arms and legs" for discs/rotor replacement is to keep the rotor temperature in check so that we can make sure the rotor is run under 'rotor's threshold temperature which is ~700 deg C w/o causing oxidation which can damage and shorten the rotor life and rising the replacement & re-furbishing which is what deter most track racers.
I found most of the rotor temperature was "guesstimated' by temperature paint (compare the color change), or a hand held IR pyrometer which is not taking the real operating temperature with accuracy in question.
So we are in development of a temperature monitoring system with a thermal couple in constant contact (spring loaded) with rotor surface which is then connected to a digital pyrometer for an accurate temperature readout, peak temp hold, and data collection/analysis.

Finding an accurate brake temperature for CCM Rotors
Weather you have pccb or standard brake, just looking for brake components replacement or upgrade; from brake pad to the complete system upgrade, we'll have something for you...
Got the call from John at Goldline that the Calipers were ready. Couldn't believe how they turned out.
The new seals and pistons from RacingBrake looked great by themselves, it wasn't until they got into John's hands that they really began to look incredible.
