Track Pads

[Neil818]

Hi sorry for repeating thisquestions that may have already been answered but wanted to get the latest updates.

Are
There any track pads that don’t squeal like a banshee. I’ve had g-loc r-10’s and ohh my they squeal. My buddy had carbotech xp-12 and a little less squealing but they also have fitment issues at times. Any other recommendations for an effective track pad without the squeak. If not what are some other quality pads that don’t break the bank?

Assuming an M3P, here's all the options for the stock brakes on the car:

M3P Comprehensive Brake Pad Option list

Wanted to start a list of brake pads that fit the stock M3P calipers, with approximate costs for a full front/rear set (As of June 2021): OEM: $650 OEM Track Pack: $1,000 Alphabetical: Carbotech: $440 - $600 (depending on compound) Endless EX90: $750 Endless EX99: $830 G-LOC: $470 - $600...

If you're running R-10's, you're running real tracks and putting real heat into them. I'd think only the Endless, Carbotechs, and Paragon would be a possible option.

I've run the Stock, XT910, and DS2500's and they're all silent, but not appropriate for full track use.

I ran a set of DS2500s on my '05 STI back when I was tracking alot. Went thru them in 1 day. Ran Pagid Yellows after that.

Does anyone know if raybestos st43’s are an option?

 

[gearchruncher]

No, the ST43's are not made for our pad shapes (again, assuming stock M3P calipers).

Raybestos Track Pads for Model 3

I just wanted to let the community know it is now possible to get Raybestos Track Pads in stock Model 3 Caliper sizes, in any compound you may need. I put a set of ST43's on the rear axle of my Model 3 before my latest event. They worked great and I had no squealing! Pricing was also...

There are very minimal options for the M3P's. The front calipers are 100% custom pad shapes, and not enough people track the cars to make the pad manufacturers truly interested.

I'm running Pagid RSL1 and they're pretty tame after the first track day (squeal like hell until the first time you get them proper hot). Not silent but good manners cold and only little squeaks at low speed and light application. Good enough for me anyway.
