Rick's Signature
Accessories has partnered with Carbotech Performance Brakes
to offer an outstanding line of brake pads suitable for
street, autocross and HPDE applications for your S2000!
We have had great success using Carbotech's products on
our S2000s over the years and finally decided it was worth
making them available to you at our dealer's rate! You
will not be disappointed! The 1521 and 1106 have been
used successfully in daily driving and autocross. The
1108 and 1109 have been used during HPDE sessions in the
Northeast including, BeaveRun, Watkins Glen, Lime Rock
Park, Pocono Raceway Infield courses, New Hampshire Raceway's
road course. The 1108 and 1109 have also been daily driven
and can be driven to and from your Driver's Education
Event, although you may experience increased dusting (although
this is not excessive).
Rick's continues
the tradition of offering products that WE USE and RECOMMEND
on a daily basis. We are proud to have been accepted by
Carbotech as their S2000 dealer!

Detailed
descriptions of pad compounds
BOBCAT (1521) :
Bobcat is a ceramic based friction material offering minimal
rotor damage and non reactive dust. Bobcat offers outstanding
performance when cold, low dusting, and low noise with an
excellent initial bite. This compound’s virtually perfect
linear torque production provides incredible braking force
without ABS intervention. Friction coefficient is ~.45 over
its operating range of ambient temp to 900F. Bobcat is suitable
for all street cars and has won multiple SCCA Solo 2 and Prosolo
national championships. Ideal pad for all SCCA Street Touring
classes using street tires. Bobcat is not recommended for
on-track driving schools or club racing.
PANTHER AX6 (1106)
A
high torque brake compound delivering reliable and consistent
performance over a very wide operating temperature range (150F
to 1250F). Advanced compound matrix provides an excellent
initial "bite", high coefficient of friction (0.54-0.56),
and very progressive brake modulation and release characteristics.
Panther Plus offers high fade resistance, rotor friendliness
at all temperatures, excellent cold stopping power, and non
corrosive dust. As a result, Panther Plus is an excellent
choice for beginner-novice lapping day and high performance
driver's schools on street driven cars using street or R-compound
tires, eliminating the need to change brake pads at the track.
Panther Plus has gained tremendous popularity with SCCA Prosolo/Solo2
competitors for its fantastic bite and modulation. In addition,
Panther Plus has seen great success as a race-only pad on
lighter improved touring and vintage race cars (ITC, etc).
Not recommended as a daily-driving street pad due to possible
elevated levels of dust and noise.
PANTHER
XP8 (1108)
A high torque brake compound with a wide operating temperature
range (250F to 1350F). Outstanding initial bite at race temperatures,
high coefficient of friction (0.58-0.60), excellent modulation
and release characteristics, extremely high fade resistance,
very rotor friendly with non-corrosive dust. Perfect for intermediate
- advanced track/HPDE use with any tire, but still can be easily
driven to and from the track. Not recommended as a daily-driving
street pad due to possible elevated levels of dust and noise.
PANTHER XP10 (1110)
For
2004, Carbotech unleashed Panther XP10 (compound 1110), and
it was an instant success, gathering multiple regional, divisional,
and even national SCCA road racing championships. This is
a very high initial bite friction material, with a friction
coefficient well above .6. Fade resistance is in excess of
1600F. XP10 is also ideal for advanced/instructor level HPDE
drivers. Compound 1110 still maintains the excellent modulation,
rotor friendliness, and non corrosive dust that has made all
Carbotech 1100-series friction compounds so successful! Not
recommended as a daily-driving street pad due to possible
elevated levels of dust and noise.
PANTHER XP12 (1112)
The latest iteration of the highly successful Panther 1100
series of compounds with even higher initial bite, torque
and fade resistance than compound 1110!!! This was the favored
compound of 2005 for SCCA T1 and T2 national drivers. Recommended
only for cars weighing more than 2900lbs using R-compound
tires or racing slicks. Not recommended as a daily-driving
street pad due to possible elevated levels of dust and noise.
