Gathering the aggregate knowledge of AP Racing and Essex, we've embarked on a joint venture to produce a unique new pad system designed for today's road and track vehicles. We've focused on the pad characteristics that please the best drivers and win races, and then distilled those traits into two new compounds that will service enthusiasts in North America. The two compounds were designed to work together to eliminate many of the common problems faced by those who use their car on both the street and track.

AP Racing Pad Compounds
The street side of the AP Racing Brake Pad System, the S100 is a great compound for aggressive street driving, canyon carving, and AutoX. It was designed for our track day customers who want a quality street pad to run between events on their dual-purpose car. The S100 provides a relatively quiet and comfortable drive on the street, while still retaining the sporting characteristics and heat capacity for the occasional spirited drive. The AP S100 is derived from the same core materials as AP's C300 Endurance compound, so the two are perfect complements for the street and track. Drivers should not expect any compatibility issues between these two compounds when swapping their brakes between street and track configurations. That means fewer pad deposits, less judder, vibration, NVH, and trashed rotors. View Reviews for this compound
