Brake Pads

[Stick Racing]

While on subject of brakes, i have a few questions.
I have a big bore master cylinder. Wilwood 4 piston calibers and #10 pads.
I did contact Wilwood and they said the #10 pads would be good for 120mph.
My cars runs 142 to 145mph. They offer a 20 pad and also an 'E' compound that may be a better choice.

Anybody have any experience with these pads? Maybe different compounds on front and rear to transfer more to the rear wheels?

We did discuss ratio and pressure but i am clearly using the wrong pads at the moment.
Thanks

Polymatrix E pads are a good choice for a car running where your at .
I use them on most of my builds and on cars running as fast as 165, although they wear very quickly at that speed .
They also exhibit a very good cold holding power ,which isn't as big a deal for you with a stick .

Thanks Tom, was getting ready to order some pads. Lo and behold just shopping and found these cheap at Wally World of all places.
