For Track use be very careful with grease. Even though Permatex's Extreme Product has a flash point greater than 500F, they do not publish a melting point. We tested it on a DS2500 pad and it melted on Daytona's School course where you barely hit 100MPH. If you want to run a track pad, swap before the event or at the track. Most of our Customers that DD their Mustangs run the G-LOC GS-1 on the street and a track compound for events. This eliminates compound incompatibilities and the need for any type of bedding. We supply all our G-LOC track Pads Pre-Bed.
We provide simple instructions for prepping the rotors and include the bolts to support the front pad changes with our pads. If you go to the Caliperfexion Studs (also get the extension sleeves) that [MENTION=19066]Epiphany[/MENTION] offers, that set up makes it a piece of cake. Our instructions and bolts use the Ford Process. The Aluminum Knuckle mounts the caliper so care needs to be taken to make sure the bolt hole is clean and the bolt is free of old thread locking compound. <Another bonus of converting to the Studs. We include new compound for the bolts with our pads.
A majority of our Customers have had great results with our G-LOC R12 front R10 rear combination. They provide excellent modulation allowing for precise trail-braking, and can be driven to the track. If you are an advanced driver on a Comp Tire we recommend the R18/R12 compounds which will work with Cup 2's and R7 Hoosiers at an advanced level.< Not a street pad. If you are running a Cup 2 at an advanced level the R16/R12 works well.
There is not a pad on the market that does both. A well driven GT350 can experience brake fade in a couple of laps at Road Atlanta on OE pads. The brakes are excellent but the temperature range is limited for serious track use on the OE Pads. G-LOC offers 8 different compounds so you can adjust brake bias to suit your personal taste. The split compounds offer the best COMPROMISE to the bias from the factory on all Mustangs. You can adjust compounds to your preference. Some Customers split, some run equal compounds front and rear. Brake pads are a consumable wear item, if they wear they make dust. G-LOC does not use compounds that etch into finishes so the dust typically wipes off. Siloxanes are very good compounds for temperature but they tend to react (etch) into the materials they come into contact with at high temperatures (track use). This is why the factory Brembo pads get so many complaints about dusting. They typically work well for the temperature range but they like to stick to the finish of the wheel on the street and the side of the car on track. If any of you have not washed your car for a while and have used the brakes hard, the door jam will have an accumulation of brake dust. #AskMeHowIKnow
