Part numbers for 2013 Track Pack GT brake pads?

Anyone know the part number for the 2013 Track Pack front and rear brake pads?

Because the literature on the Track Pack option mentioned "performance friction brake pads"... I had it in my head that the pads were different than those that came with the Brembo package.

But now that I'm looking through the parts catalog, I'm not so sure.

Can someone verify the part numbers for me so that I can order some more online (w/o risking the hassle of order the wrong thing)?

Thanks!

I am sure if you called Tousley Ford they could help you out. My suggestion would be to grab some Hawk HPS or another similar pad. The Ford ones just suck and make a ton of dust.

I did two HPDE track events so far on this car with the OEM Track Pack pads, and to my surprise I thought the brakes worked just fine on the track (no fade, reasonable wear)

so I plan to just keep using these (don't fix it if it ain't broke, right?)

You weren't pushing them hard enough, eventually you will.
First day in the Boss, they felt fine. Then I did 2 days at the Boss track attack. My next time out in my car I was getting brake fade

Perhaps my skill level, or the ambient temps, or the track layout kept the brakes from overheating.

But let's say I wish to upgrade to a more appropriate pad, any recommendations?

Track Pack pads are the same part number as the BOSS pads. Same pads.

As I said before the HPS's are great IMO, they aren't full on race pads which is nice for the street, no squeal. I know several SCCA guys like StopTech. There is also PFC, CarboTech, EBC, and there is one I am forgetting that I thought was made in VA that a bunch of people like. I know those are more selection then recommendation, but hopefully someone else will way in.

The HPS pads are what I will probably go with when I upgrade. For now I don't need them but at least I know they aren't super expensive. 125 for the fronts from AM.

I also want the Powerslot rotors for the front.

Not sure about AM but I know I ordered my front and rear sets from Summit Racing and the shipping was 2 day and free. Full set was 201.02 with tax.
