Overview:
PowerStop Track Day Brake Pads are engineered specifically for street-driven vehicles that see occasional use on road race circuits, such as track days or High Performance Driving Events (HPDE). Designed for entry-level track enthusiasts, these rear brake pads deliver reliable stopping power and fade resistance under demanding track conditions without the need for extensive trial and error. Developed through extensive research and testing, the platform-specific compounds ensure optimal performance tailored to each vehicle application, including popular models like the Chrysler 300, Dodge Challenger, Charger, Durango, Magnum, and Jeep Grand Cherokee.
These pads provide a superior coefficient of friction that improves as temperatures rise, offering consistent and stable brake modulation throughout your track session. While ideal for track use with street tires, they are not recommended for daily street driving due to increased wear and potential noise.
Key Features:
PowerStop Track Day Brake Pads combine advanced materials and design to meet the demands of beginner track enthusiasts. Key features include:
- Stage 1 compound optimized for track day use with street tires
- High coefficient of friction when cold, increasing further at elevated temperatures
- Excellent fade resistance for consistent braking performance during extended track sessions
- Carbon-fiber and metallic pad compound for superior durability and heat management
- Premium stainless-steel hardware included for straightforward installation
- Stable and predictable brake pedal feel for enhanced driver confidence
- Platform-specific formulation tailored to each vehicle for optimal performance
- Official brake pads of the Radford Racing School, underscoring their track credibility
Construction & Design:
These brake pads feature a carbon-fiber and metallic composite compound engineered to withstand the thermal and mechanical stresses of track driving. The blend of materials ensures rapid heat dissipation and maintains structural integrity under high temperatures, reducing the risk of brake fade. The stainless-steel hardware enhances mounting reliability and resists corrosion, contributing to long-term durability and ease of maintenance. Each pad is precision-matched to the specific brake system of the supported vehicle models, ensuring proper fit and optimal contact with the rotor surface.
Performance & Sound
PowerStop Track Day Brake Pads deliver a high initial bite that improves as the pads heat up, providing consistent stopping power throughout your track session. The compound is formulated to minimize brake fade, allowing drivers to maintain confidence during repeated heavy braking. While these pads excel on the track, they may produce increased noise and faster wear if used regularly on the street, making them best suited for dedicated track day applications.
Installation & Fitment:
Installation is straightforward with the included premium stainless-steel hardware, designed to fit directly into the factory caliper mounts without modification. These pads are direct replacements for the rear brake pads on the listed vehicle models and years, ensuring a precise fit and reliable performance. No special tools or machining are required, making them an accessible upgrade for enthusiasts preparing their vehicles for track use.
What's Included:
- Set of rear PowerStop Track Day Brake Pads
- Premium stainless-steel mounting hardware
- Installation instructions
Ideal For:
These brake pads are ideal for street-driven vehicles that are occasionally taken to the track for track days or HPDE events. They are perfect for beginner to intermediate track enthusiasts who want improved braking performance and fade resistance without investing in full race-spec brake systems. Suitable for owners of Chrysler 300, Dodge Challenger, Charger, Durango, Magnum, and Jeep Grand Cherokee models within the specified year ranges who seek a reliable and consistent track pad option.
