I need some rear pads for my Sylva Riot SE for mainly track use. The car weighs 465kg and is running approx 140bhp. The calipers are Ford Sierra. I'm using Mintex 1144 on the front but they don't seem to be available for my rear calipers. Demon Tweeks come up with EBC Greenstuff and I've heard good and bad about them. So any suggestions please?

Try Ferodo DS2500 pads. Suitable for both road and track use. http://www.ferodoracing.com/it/car_racing/ds_2500....

I've found somewhere that does Mintex 1144 for these calipers so I'll get those.

seriously consider trying some of Rally designs own range of kevlar fast road pads, excellent value, and great bite, ideal for a lighter car imho
