We're looking to expand our brake pad inventory and want to get an idea of what everyone uses for your track day/race car.
We currently inventory various sizes of Pagid, PFC and Carbotech (and we sell Hawk, but we don't inventory much Hawk).
Brake fluids we carry Motul, SRF, Pagid, and ATE.

Yeah, I know...this is just a step down from 'What oil do you use?" (we sell Motul btw), but it will really help us determine our mix of pad offerings.

Please provide what car, pad brand and compounds.....and if you don't want your competitors to know, you can PM, email or call me direct.

Thanks!!!

I would perfer to buy my Endless brake fluid from a know vendor then just a random amazon seller. I probably go through 6-8 cans a year with purge and flushes.

Same here, but we already have a wonderful supplier, but that's what we use on the 991.2 GT3 and the 981S Cayman.....

PFC 08 or 11 have been my favorite on multiple different Porsches. I do think brake pad preference is highly personal.

NaroEscape

It is. And it also depends on HOW you apply the brakes.
I prefer Carbotech because they feel right for my breaking style. Most others in SPC prefer Pagid. So we carry both for SPC.

982 GT4 owner. Carbotech is likely going to be my go to (bang for buck) for this car. I would run carbotech far more on everything I own if they were easier for me to get (i'm in another country, not easy to get here). Pagid would be the backup for this car (kinda expensive IMO). Just got the car so I can't comment on compound I'd buy yet, most likely I'd see what others who've been driving this car for a couple years recommend or go with XP8 after i'm done with the OE pads and see how those work. OE pads seemed adaquate but didn't love my first impressions of them on the track for initial feel so I don't think i'll do OE pads again.

Do you carry the RSL1 and RST4 pagid compounds?

compounds in my GT4 are XR2s front/rear

BFT3.2

SPB running Raybestos ST-43 -Plenty of power, work well in the cold, fronts last me(down to 40% pad) two seasons (22 days), rears 35 days. Not a typo..

Wujohn

I just do TT and got a season out of the fronts - ME20's from Endless (say 8 weekends). Rears still have roughly 50% life in them. Might have gotten more out of them but figured better safe than sorry with brakes.

I've only done a few track days in my 987.2 Cayman, the Ferodo DS2500 didn't last a long time, so I'm looking at going to the higher rated Ferodo's.
