[Fot] TR6 Porterfield R-4 Rear Brake Shoes - Carbotech relining

[Barr, Scott]

I loved the Carbotech pads when I was using them on my GT6 for track days.  I never had the odd wear problems that have been described.  I always used the Hawk Blues on my Spitfire racer and liked those as well, though they didn't have to deal with the same heat as was generated by my GT6 brakes at Blackhawk.  The Hawk Blues I use on my Spec Racer Ford also work really well and stand up to enough heat to turn the rotors blue.  If you're unhappy with the Carbotech pads, the Hawk Blues are a good option, in my opinion.

I agree. I get the pre-heated ones too. Carbotech stops as well or better, and last longer than any other pads I’ve tried, and I’ve tried quite a few.
