Historically race pad wither NEED WARM UP before becoming effective or RUIN BRAKE ROTORS ... the new EBC R compound does NEITHER. It also creates a tiny fraction of the dust popular with semi metallic race pads which regularly gets referred to as "slurry" on chat sites and is a true low dust pad.

EBC Yellowstuff R pads are legal for STREET use so you can now drive to the track, race, and come home. Great news for the weekend warrior at track days!

Lifetime of the pad material itself is also very healthy and this is a true long lasting pad for mid size sedans or hot hatches. The pads come with EBC's typical high gloss powdercoat finish which lasts ten times as long as paint and resists heat better.
