Review on Race Technologies RE10 Pads

Since we picked up our 991 GT3, we were extremely happy to take it to the race track in it’s natural habit! We took the GT3 to Big Willow and Buttonwillow and we noticed that the stock pads did not have a good bite, which slowed the car down going into turns… We decided to give Race Technologies (Partner for Brembo Performance and Racing) a call. They helped setup our F80 M3 a few months prior, and I knew they could help in the GT3. Based on their suggestions, we decided to go with the Race Technologies RE10 endurance compound since it was formulated for the professional racing series. I wanted a pad that could work consistently on the street and track.

 

Our thoughts:

Pad Performance on Track: 
Feedback is GREAT. Initial bite is NIGHT and DAY difference over stock.

Cold Temperature:
Pads response just as good cold or warm. The initial bite is so damn good!

Dust & Noise:
– Around town they tend to squeak a little coming to a complete stop but after a car wash – the squeak goes away. Strange but for the stopping power, it is a great trade off.
– Dust: I would say about 20% increase over stock which isn’t too pad!

Disc Wear:
We have put these pads through 8 track days so far and have not noticed any more disc wear than stock pads.

Pad Wear:
We have measured the pads last week and have not even seen a 5-10% decrease in size.

Overall: 
LOVE THEM! Great pads, got it right the first time around. Truly helped confidence going into turns. The two things that stand out the most about the pad is the incredible initial bite (both hot and cold) and the linear modulation.

We highly recommend these pads on the 991 GT3! We love our Race Technologies RE10 pads! You will also!
