Very popular amongst car show users and high-end vehicle owners that care very much about maintaining clean wheels and an overall clean look. Part of the Non-Steel Series, Endless uses a Non-Steel Developmental Process with a new, mild ceramic material to increase rotor friendliness. With no steel materials, dust is minimal and rusting is prevented, enabling ease of cleaning wheels (even with water).

Street Pads won't work well on the track. Swap your pads to track pads when you are going to the track and report back.

With the "race experience" you described, perhaps invest in some temperature paint and infrared heat gun so you know how hot your rotors and calipers are really getting.

Brake cooling ducts are a must.

Ti heat shield for when you up-grade to the 'bono's.
