Best drag race pads for stock calipers?
I'm looking for the best brake pads to use with the stock Turbo Regal front calipers. Something that will work good right off the trailer (i.e.: cold brakes). This will be on a 9 second Buick that will only see a max of 2,000 miles of combined track/street use a year.
I'm well aware of all the other disc/caliper choices available. For now though, I'd just like to know what my options are in regards to the pads for a stock caliper. Thanks, -Banning.

Hawk. Give a call. I spoke with them while I was down at PRI this past Dec. They are very helpful.
