PCD: 2013-2014 Till We Break It Edition
i wouldn't think PF01 are too much for street tires for an advance driver. it's one of their lower track compound. that's why i didn't buy that set because i don't think it will be enough for my hoho. i need 08 for my hoho. but i've never use PFC, so i can't say for sure. you should beat that guy up with the used PF01 and Ti shims. he told me he did one autox event, it was a national tour and two driver. he said it has 14.5mm left with the backing plates. new pads are usually 16mm
I bought that set and the shims. I'm hoping I won't need to buy anymore pads for the season. I have 43's, my XP10's still have life, and now I have the PF01's to try... Hopefully they'll be ok.
01 is one of the most popular race compounds in the PFC's arsenal. Slightly higher bite and torque for the first 2/3's of the stop than 83 compound. At the end of the stop, 01 compound has less torque scatter for improved modulation with excellent release and a flat torque curve. 01 compound is very easy on the discs with very low wear, on par with 83 compounds.
01 Recommended Applications:01 is recommended as an all-purpose pad in a wide variety of applications.NASCAR Short Track and Road CourseNASCAR Speedway and IntermediateAll Oval Track Race seriesIndyCarProfessional GTDaytona PrototypeSCCA RacingPorsche/BMW/Corvette/Viper Club Racing
06 compound pads are very similar to PFC 01 for both bite and torque, within 4% of those values. Excellent release and control with very low wear. Very low abraded disc wear with a “powdery type” transfer layer. 06 pads are an excellent alternative to other brands of endurance compounds but with much higher performance. Excellent for club racing type shapes as well in OE brake calipers where ABS is used.

PFC’s newest high bite and torque compound and has gained immediate favor in the NASCAR, Sportscar, and Open Wheel racing due to its unsurpassed performance. 07 have higher initial bite and higher average torque than any other PFC compound. 07 will have some friction rise with temperature for the most severe applications. The release and modulation characteristics are second to none. Very low abraded disc wear with a fine micronic polished disc finish. Despite its considerable performance, 07 will have slightly better wear than 05. This compound demands the most from the vehicle setup and is designed to handle the most severe applications.
07 Recommended Applications:For high grip, high down force, or severe duty applications.NASCAR Short Track and Road CourseIndy carsF-NipponIndy LitesProfessional GTDaytona Prototype
08 compound is one of PFC newest and have gained immediate favor in Endurance Sportscar, and GT racing due to its performance in applications where smooth initial bite is a must. 08 have a slight friction rise with temperature, excellent release and modulation characteristics, and very low abraded disc wear. In addition to its considerable performance, 08 wears the longest of all PFC pads and easily matches wear of the other competitors with much higher bite.

for reference I got almost an entire season out of the PFC 06 pads on my m3 on street tires. They are def an endurance pad. I could have gotten a full season but mistakenly put carbos in there and wound up with all kinds of deposits on my rotors. my original PFC pads still have over 1/4 material left. I will use them as DE pads this year.
Keep in mind thats on a much lighter car than the evo with lower terminal speeds too. I wouldn't expect anything near that king of life out of the 01's.

I wouldn't expect to get that kind of life out of them, although I had basically a full season on my first set of 43's. Between the three set of used pads I have, I should be good. Now I just need to get me some Centric 125's to try out.
Thai, give me $135 and you can try them out all you want.
