Carbotech Performance Brakes
We take you deeper into the corners & across the finish line first.
When you want the control and modulation to take your track-bred car deep into the turns, you need unsurpassed Carbotech brake technology. Going deep before you brake allows you to stay on the accelerator longer going into the corner and even faster coming out.
If you're a professional racer, or if you're taking your street car to the track for club events, Carbotech has the best braking solution. That's why we are becoming the #1 manufacturer of performance brake pads around the world with professional and club racers--everyone who demands the best. At Carbotech, we've been heavily involved in club and professional racing for more than 17 years. We know what you need to win.
Smarter construction.
Only Carbotech uses a proprietary Ceramic and Metallic brake construction, not the carbon and iron used in conventional brake systems. Since carbon and iron combine to form carbide, which is used in cutting tools, you can imagine what those brakes are doing to your rotors.
Carbotech Performance Brakes utilize true race compounds that are "rotor friendly," eliminating the grabbing and locking up that keep so many drivers and race cars from performing at their peak. You want to go deep to gain those precious fractions of a second before you need to brake, and only Carbotech brakes let you do just that. In every turn, all race long.
Custom solutions.
Designed by racers for racers, Carbotech brakes can be specified to meet the needs of your car and driving style. Just give us a call and we can recommend the compounds that will be perfect for your front and rear pads and shoes, assuring that they perform together with optimum effectiveness.
Warning for Carbotech customers:
A website called JDM Hub has started listing Carbotech brake pads as "In Stock" and claims "Stock is synchronized (weekly) with JDM Hub's / JDM Hub's suppliers' and Carbotech's inventory and is subjected to change." These statements are false. JDM Hub is not currently and has never been a distributor for Carbotech. They have never placed even a single order with us and have no connection or knowledge of Carbotech's inventory levels. We suggest using extreme caution when ordering from JDM Hub and urge you not to order any Carbotech parts from this website. Your order will never arrive regardless of what their stock levels claim.
To place an order please contact me at 216-780-8825 I will be happy to answer any questions PM me or Email @ adam@ctbrakes.com

CARBOTECH ROCKS!!! 
The stopping power of their pads is unbelievable, and yet they seem to wear really well.I keep pushing these pads deeper and deeper and they continue to amaze me.
Carbotech takes customer service very seriously, and they are super knowledgeable and helpful.
A good pad just might be the cheapest go fast item you can buy. Call Adam or Danny, tell them about your car and what you want to do with it, they'll hook you up w/the appropriate pad. Then, as David Hobbs likes to say, hold on to your holyhocks.....because you're not going to believe how late you'll be able to brake.

I have really liked them, I used the Xp8 on the GT-R and now this weekend I am whipping out my XP12s, I dont think I will try anything else, esp because of the price.

I would love to use Corbotech but I can barley afford to run as it is. Thats probably the only reason I use another brand, for the contingency. :o

Love the carobetechs. 12's in front and 10's in the rear.
You will not find a group of guys that are more helpful. Tell them what tires you are running, what tracks, etc... and they will put the right pads on your car. I have been on the phone with Mike, Jr. over the last couple of days re pads for some wilwood calipers and he has been great.
Tks for what you guys do. A real pleasure to do business with you.
I asked Mike for the 20% corvette forum discuount this afternoon and it got real quite on the phone. Is that the right number?
lol. Tks again guys

Don't laugh Adam. Danny oughta really, REALLY give this some serious thought. Those of us doing Time Trials are pretty committed to 10-12 events a year with various organizations. That adds up to a couple of sets of pads a year. Hell, just go look up my reciepts to see how many I personally order from you.
I guarantee you some type of contingency (be it free stuff or discounts) would pay dividends.
You have my business regardless, but food for thought. See how good a Carbotech sticker looks on a car??????

That would be very, very cool. I'd slap a sticker on my car for the chance at discounted pads IF I do well in time trial, and if there are more than three folks in my class. Something like that. I'm a faithful Carbotech customer, for my daily driver, my wife's track car and the time trial car. NASA Texas #41. Great, great brakes.
