Creating a 'Trackable' Daily Driver

[lucasmelobr]

My 2016 GT Auto Premium is a DD. This is what I done to it and it tracks really well:

-Carbo Tech XP10 Pads
-DBA Front Rotors
-FRPP Suspension Track Package
-FRPP Front Brace
-FRPP Strut Brace
-Steeda IRS Subframe Braces

The plan was to keep the car a DD while allowing for around 5-10 HPDE per year.

I wrote a big post about my experience with swapping to brembos in the brakes subforum. https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/th...om-base-gt-4-pistons-one-mans-opinion.121157/

Stock PP pads are Ferodo DS2500. I found them very good, 8 track days and hardly half worn. Trying Stoptech track day pad this year but really had no complaint about the stock pads, except the outrageous price for them north of the border.

Just make sure to get the dust from those off your wheels immediately. Also they're very hard on rotors when street driving.

Right. Why do I continually get those two companies confused? Some form of dyslexia?

After I bedded them on new rotors the wheels were dustier than I've ever seen, I wiped them down right away. I don't do much street driving, usually just to and from the track so hopefully that won't be a negative. They're half the cost of the Ford pads, I'd really like to use the Ford ones, I found them great but it's just stupid money up here to get them vs the Powerstop ones.
