Jay Henry Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Evening all. Need advice please. Been to caddy today and car ran faultlessly but had no confidence in the corners or on the brakes and that’s were it counts. Ive got Westfield stamped ap’s. What’s the best pad for track use? Basic geo set up for track? Thanks for your advice in advance. Jay. I should add, I’ve got arb’s that I will be removing before I’m back there in a couple of weeks. From what I’ve read that should help??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAFKARM Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 What’s your experience level? What tyres are you on (and age!) and pressures? looks like awesome weather, nothing beats a sunny Cadwell, it’s a rare event! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Henry Posted April 4, 2021 Author Share Posted April 4, 2021 Been doing td’s for about 15 years. Lightly modified road cars at first. 205 mi16 caged ran slicks on that. 500 bhp skyline powered esc Cosworth. Rwd no driver aids. Most recently a track prepped e46 m3. Did mid 1:40’s in the m. Toyo 888’s no idea of age came with the car. Guessing a couple of years. 18 psi hot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAFKARM Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Sounds like the basics are covered! Pressures sound right. I use DS Uno which seem ok, but interesting my first time out on very old 888s yesterday and I found them less than inspiring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Chase (NICO) - Shropshire & Mid-Wales AO Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Jay. I have some nearly new Mintex 1144 that fit those calipers. Used for one track day. Took them out because they screech on the road. The standard pads are Ferodo ds2500. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
