Need better braking using stock rotors and calipers...

Subscribed... I like to push mine as well...

What are the updates on this? I just purchased the as lines from challenge. How much did people need and what's the best for road and maybe 1 to 2 track events per year? Will it work with the carbon ceramic brakes?

Edit:
Thinking of getting the Castrol SRF. It has the highest wet boiling point. Prob buy two Liters to have some left over. They are in my amazon cart. Just waiting for some other opinions

Thanks for sharing!

The car is very heavy for the brakes, so they heat up quickly.

I need the increased stopping performance for sudden slowdowns on the freeway from ~140-150Mph speeds due to sudden traffic congestion, or possible inept drivers cutting me off and having no passing or longer braking distance options.

WTF??
How is anyone else inept when your doing 150mph on public roads??
You need to get to a track near you asap and go often.....after that you will stop driving like a getaway driver on the streets before you kill us all.....or at least a few of us.

Agreed

Has anyone found a better pad for the M5 steel brakes ?

Unfortunately Mintex does not offer something.
Pagid RS29 is an option, but they are too aggressive for a street car.
