this time around i'm going to order a set of pads/rotors for the track, keep my factory stuff for the street.

so for rotors, they get pretty hot (ha!) is a factory replacement going to be good enough? aka a cheap set of rotors :)

my local track is road america. on my last gt i had wilwood 14" front kit and quickly moved to actual track pads (xp10/xp8) & duct cooling. loved it, no problems. on two of the straits with low speed corners i mostly self limit to around 125mph, i am getting better and more confident so i could see 135mph, down to around 40-45mph for turn 5 and 12. probably 2-3 events a year is what i'm looking at.

thanks!

Yep, just get some blanks. There are a few takeoff's in the FS section actually, I'd grab a set.

I'm looking at doing the same - only ones I can find for sale in the member classifieds are for PP GT, so they won't work for my PP EBM. Searching online finds me some from powerstop and centric. Any issues with either of them? Or should I just go Ford OEM?

I'd go OEM for blanks since they're probably the cheapest. Otherwise go with the cheapest.

pretty much any scheduled event open to spectators. some club's insurance doesn't cover spectators, but most do so i just drive down. spring vintage, june sprints, most of the headliners. i might even go for the motorbikes this year because i haven't seen them in a while. we will have to organize something.

Can anyone confirm which, if either of these, is the correct front rotor for the PP EBM? Couldn't confirm it on Ford's website.

They are the same as the base GT, but they have the exact same options in the GT section, lol.
