Default Superformance brakes response

Tom, the new pads are being sent out for the front brakes to match the pads in the rear. Now both front and rear pad compounds are matching BP-10 same as on the GT 40. Both Superformance and Wilwood are working on new friction materials to increase the stopping capabilities. Superformance and Wilwood will be working on different kits for different driving styles whether is be autocross, street strip or

Your every day driver. We found during the research and development that we were quite satisfied with the braking system with the BP-10

And the Q, the difference with the BP-10 was the even modulation. The Q pad in fact does meet our requirements as long as the dealer prep was done according to the bedding procedure. You can view the characteristics and product information on the Wilwood web site under pad compound graphs. I am asking for all parts to be returned for evaluation to determine if the dealers/installers have done there job correctly.

We are quite satisfied with the research that we had done on the Mark III I brought to Wilwood, and the customer is quite satisfied with the results.

I would also like to Thank Brian Boyd for lending me the use of his car for the test at Wilwood.
