Automotive Race Driver Feedback - Yellowstuff - 4000 "R" Series

Page

Alan Jung - Rally Driver

Thanks for generously sending me a set of your new Yellowstuff brake pads. I have them on my 2009 Suabaru WRX which I am campaigning this year in SCCA Solo/autocross in the D Stock class.

So far, I am leading the regional championship series. I also placed 3rd at the San Diego national Tour event against a field of stiff competition.

I am attaching a photo of my car from the Utah National Tour event which was also the Western States Championship.

The pads bedded-in easily and provide very good initial/cold bite and linear braking under severe autocross conditions. They are a marked improvement over my factory pads.

They do squeal a bit at low speeds (coming to a stop in traffic at a light) and they dust significantly. I suppose this is always the trade off for improved pad performance (and I will take dusty, noisy pads that help me win any day).

Keep up the good work at EBC Brakes and I'll keep racing hard.

WARRANTY ON ALL EBC ROTORS AND PADS IS SIX MONTHS FROM PURCHASE
OR 10,000 MILES AND EXCLUDES RACE USE.

Please note THERE IS NO WARRANTY whatsoever for any EBC product used in Rally, Racing or Trackday, (Trackday use is tougher on brakes) because of the very demanding environment of racing. Loads ,speeds,track length and format and especially driving styles can vary immensely and can dramatically affect pad life . Standard brake systems even on modern cars are not normally designed for racing and may be totally unsuitable for race use. Simply changing to what we call a "Race formula" pad does not provide you with a race car.Acquaint yourself safely in a test mode to evaluate if any material you use for racing is suitable in terms of braking power, fade resistance and WEAR LIFE. Monitor wear carefully every few laps when first applying products to race or rally cars to avoid an unforeseen short life issue. In spite of the fact that EBC brakes has had many successes in race use of its products no one pad can solve all brake issues and requirements.This race tech advice is a completely free service given by our race technical staff on our UK hotlines. Such advice is given and accepted on a no warranty, no guarantee, no prejudice basis.
