Track Wisdom

"The mark of a great racer is consistency. If you can consistently lap a track at the limit, with the lap times varying no more than 1/2 second, then you have a chance to be a winner. If your lap times vary more than that, no matter how fast some of them are, you won't win often."

-- Ross Bentley, Speed Secrets

Will these fit with new pads?

Yes! Our shims are designed to be thin enough that they will fit with even new pads (roughly 0.5mm). You may find it necessary to break in the new pads with a bedding procedure before the shims will fit.

As your pads wear down, you can "stack" our shims to make up for lost brake material. This will actually decrease the amount of heat that gets to your brake fluids as your pads wear down.
