Power Stop Track Day brake pad alternative - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hi Guys,

I tried Power Stop Track Day brake pads front and rear at Pocono on the Mega Course and really liked them. I like the OEM Brembo pads too but went through a new set in one day at Watkins Glen so was hoping the track day might at least give me a weekend.
I just switched to 6 piston calipers and the Track Day Pads are no where to be found so don't have much time. Can anyone suggest a comparable alternative for the front 6 pots and I have the Track Day on the rear?

RUn square pads, same on front and rear.

I recommend Raybestos ST43 for track pads, they wear very good and stop well.

Are you bedding in the pads prior to going to the track?

Call and talk to Tim

Thanks or the input.

yes I absolutely follow manufacturers instructions for bedding.

On a scale of 1 - 10; 1 being HP Street and 10 being full race, where would you rate the ST-43?
