StopTech & Hawk Setup

You're not the first person to ask this question ... but if you push your braking at all on the track, there is no brake pad that will be acceptable

You're not the first person to ask this question ... but if you push your braking at all on the track, there is no brake pad that will be acceptable for you on both the street and the track.

Why are you opposed to having separate pads? The sport package calipers make it very easy to swap them out the night before or at track. Gotta pay to play, and separate pads for street and track will make you safer in both scenarios

When using racing pads on stoptech rotors, are the rotors and street tires up for all that extra stopping power?
