This is one of our best selling packages for track use.
DBA 4000 slotted rotors with Ferodo DS1.11 brake pads. Goes great with dS2500 rear pads. For enduro or extended race periods, we recommend using DS1.11 in the rear as well.
Built on the foundations of DBA's T2 slot, the T3 slot design features additional, precise, CNC machined tri-symmetrical slots, resulting in an even quieter, more responsive and smoother brake pedal feel The T3 slot increases the number of exit points for brake pad friction dust and gases to escape through, further increasing the consistency and effectiveness of every brake stop, DBA's revolutionary universal slot design eliminates the need for separate left and right slot designs seen in traditional rotor designs, DBA's 4000 Series T3 rotors are recommended for all performance applications from street driving, 4?4 and SUV, light utility vehicles, track days, rally cars and armored vehicles, DBA's 4000 Series rotors feature: XG-150 High Carbon Alloyed Iron, TSP (Thermal Stability Profiling), Thermo-graphic paint markings (THGP), Direct replacement suitability, Moisture proof corrosion protection packaging
DS1.11
The DS1.11 has a lower mu than the DS3.12 at all temperatures and can be characterized as a moderate mu pad vs. other endurance racing compounds. They require more pedal force than the DS3.12, and they have a slightly declining torque curve as temperatures rise. As they get hotter and you dive deeper into a turn, you may feel like you need to push a little harder on the brake pedal to elicit the same response (which is a feel many drivers actually prefer). Some drivers feel that the DS1.11 is more controllable on street tires than DS3.12 since ABS cannot be activated as easily. It will last a fairly long time vs. many other pad compounds on the market but does not last quite as long as the DS3.12. They are very gentle on discs at track temperatures when a proper pad transfer layer is maintained. The DS1.11 also has an outstanding max temp and fade resistance, just not quite as high as 3.12. We're not aware of anyone who has faded them, and most people differentiate between the DS1.11 and DS3.12 based on feel.
