Anyone have a suggestion for a set of pads will that will last a full 24 hours? Track is TWS and running a 94 if it makes a difference. I like the new DTC pads from Hawk but have not had much experience with them to know how it they will be a good choice for a 24 hour enduro.

Check with the Miatacage guys in Portland as they have been quite successful in the Thunderhill 25 running a NA...They seem to like Carbo's for sprint racing, but don't know what they choose for the 25. I have run Hawk Blacks in both a 4 and 8 hour enduros with zero issues...but the track will have something to say about ultimate choice I would think.

Call Danny @ Carbotec he will make you up a set for a 24 hour race.

Perhaps a rhetorical question given your answer, but does this mean that Carbotec will make a set to custom order?
Have you/anyone driven on such a set?

Talked to someone who used Raybestos 2 years ago(forgot the number), granted it rained but pads looked untouched after 25 hrs!

Thanks guys for the responses, I will give Danny a call at Cabotech. Has anyone had any experience with Hawk blues for the 25 hour?
