Racing technology continues to find its way to the street, and Hawk Performance has found a way to make you get closer to that goal!

Dive into the next tight corner, brake later and edge past your competition, but don't put it on a trailer after you lapped the field, take your helmet off and drive to you celebratory dinner. The new Street/Race compound from Hawk Performance truly gives you that ability.

 

The trend of using a street car in competition increases every year and competitors are always demanding more, they are always looking for an edge over the competition. The new Hawk High Performance Street/Race brake pad compound provides that edge and provides it in spades; it is the ultimate high performance, street brake pad! Perfect for aggressive street car owners that also use their cars for autocross, HPDE, open track and time trail racing. High Performance Street/Race pads feature Hawk’s mechanical (bond) retention system (MRS), slotted friction, hot bond shim, and pad chamfer that improve the vehicle handling, safety and driver confidence. It performs flawlessly at all temperatures and operating temperatures range from 100-1200F with superior torque while providing a consistent feel and characteristics.

 

Using decades of engineering and technology from our racing programs, the Hawk Performance team cross engineered the new Street/Race compound. The pad provides a smooth, consistent brake pedal feel while still proving superior brake rotor grab, the performance of this pad cannot be matched without installing racing pads. The High Performance Street/Race pad is designed to perform consistently in temperatures up to 1200°F while still maintaining great pedal feel.

 

While the High Performance Street/Race pad is ideal for many aggressive drivers that own high performance street cars, it does produce a bit of noise and dust.

Features:

• Aggressive Torque
• Great Rotor and Pad Wear Life
• 100-1200°F Operating Temperatures
• Smooth and Predictable Control
• Designed to Deliver High Deceleration Rates
• Smooth Braking Feel
• Consistent Brake Release Characteristics

Not sure which Hawk performance brake pad is right for your needs? Consult the "Hawk Brake Pad Compounds" graph for an illustration of braking temperatures versus coefficient of friction. A brake pad from the right of the graph such as DTC-50, DTC-60, or DTC-70 will provide aggressive stopping power for the track, but may not be suitable for street driving as they require higher temperatures to function properly. Selecting a pad from the left of the graph such as HPS 5.0, HP+, or the new Street Race will offer a more streetable upgrade with comparatively lower dust and quieter performance, while still improving brake torque and being gentle on rotors.
