Default Brake pad availability

Anyone stock a good selection of track pads in So Cal? I ordered some new DS1s from Clark but not sure they will show up in time for this weekend.

BBI can get race technologies in a day typically. RT is in Irvine. BBI in hb. Try the re10

Never run Brembo pads. Re10 are about 1k for set. Last a long time.

They last a long time. Wait, who was having issues with pedal feel and brake fade last week on "good and cheap" brake pads? :-)

I blame it on Kormaster with his suggestion and who needs brakes anyway.

Going back to Endless pads now.

The RE10 are less expensive than MA45B at least when I priced.

MA45B's are $$$$.

I was able to get some ME20's for about $760 for front and rear, so not too bad.

yeah, ME20 are less, the RE10 last like 2x as long (coming from pad engineer that knows them all)... ME20 will have a bit more initial bite. One is sprint pad one is endurance.
