Default 968 Track Day Brake Pads WTB

Pooh...just bought a 968 and want to bring it to the track.

On street tires...

Brake pads are expensive.

Anyone have a set of brake pads they want to sell that will let me drive on the street and track for a couple days this year?

Thanks.

Textar Pads are like $90/axle and you can buy aftermarket pads for $30/axle. Brakes will be the cheapest part of your track day.

In your case it would probably be Registration or tires. If you are running street tires, I'd suggest you run stock pads. Assuming you are a novice, just have your brakes flushed and buy yourself a tire pressure gauge and s torque wrench and have fun!
