Default Performance Brake Pads source ??
Finally had a chance to run the Shelby on the new Hockenheimring - was great fun - but 10 laps was all it took to completely fry the front brake pads !

Who makes good pads for a dual duty car like mine ?
Mostly hard street but - donīt forget the Autobahn and a little track use

I have used "Velvetouch" metalic brake shoes in the rear with good results - but they seem to have gone out of business.

The Porterfield R-4 or R-4S carbon kevlar pads are great.
