    Need some brake pads for street and a little track time. Last inspection I was told only one more track day on the pads I have and I did that. Now I need to get read for Talladega. I'm open for suggestioons.

    Hi Capt. Rehkopf! Great to see you here. I have been using the Porterfield R4S with great results on my 355. They are designed for spirited street use, and occaisional track use as well. They dust very little, do not squeal and I noticed an immediate improvement in initial bite and pedal feel after installation. I will admit I am never near a track, only street, but other have said they are fine for occaisional track use.

    I am sure there are other good pads out there as well, and others will chime it with their favorites.

    Details here:

    There are even better pads that are more track oriented, but usually make more dust, and can be rather noisy. I guess it all depends on how hard you are on the brakes. What are you using currently?

    They are available from site sponsors too:
