Default CHEAP Raybestos Pads Seller Randall Race Parts

http://www.randallraceparts.com/

No I'm not getting kickbacks from them and no I don't work for them. I did, however, buy front C5 pads/rear C4 pads for around $200. They're not a scam and it's not a limited time offer. I've seen used pads go for more than what they get for new. Thing is they only carry Brembo and Raybestos pads.

C5 ST41/43/47 pads are about $100 up front, oddly $175 for the ST45.
C5 ST41/43/47 rear pads about $60, no ST45.

Not sure about the C6, haven't memorized its pad numbers, though if they have it or can get it I imagine they're similarly cheap. Check 'em out, I haven't seen them mentioned on here. They obliterate Porterfield's prices which I previously thought were fair. You can call Jake and he'll talk your ear off about pad compounds and such, he has a bedding machine and sells the circle track guys pre-bedded pads and rotors.

They carry all the Raybestos pad shapes, so you can get the 7416/7420 or 6617/6620 shapes (among others) as well.

Yup I figured if I, a forum ***** hadn't heard of them then plenty of others hadn't either. Gotta get the word out, every track junkie loves to save a buck or $100.

I've been buying from Jake at Randal for several years as well. Good customer service and good prices...

A few of us were thinking the same thing.

I ordered a spare set from them at the end of last season just in case. Between my stash of super-secret rotors and these ST43s, I'm set for brakes for a couple more seasons.

Awesome, thanks for the heads up.

I'm going back to street tires and driving to/from events with my C5, so I was looking at switching from my DTC 70/60 setup to ST43. Do the street tire (200TW or so) experts use that compound on all four corners? Or maybe split to the ST41 on the rear?

Jake already knows how cheap his stuff is, I really didn't get the impression that prices were going up at any point in the foreseeable future.

ST41 has more bit and different mu cold vs warm, better to do a ST47/ST43 split.

Jake keeps stock C5 and Wilwood SL-6 Raybestos pads in stock (ST 43 or 47). He is in Mooresville so does a lot of work for NASCAR. He cuts us poor track day guys a break whenever he can. Good dude and great customer service.

Agree with all this. Just recently bought a set of ST-43's all the way around for less than $200 shipped. I think it was actually $175 shipped. Fantastic prices and not a scam at all!

What is the general consensus with these pads...best bang for the buck (track wise) at the 43's?

EDIT: Reading up it may be best for 43 front and 41 rear for street tires. Any concur?

I have had very good results on street tires on my C5 with ST47 up front and ST43 in the rear. Jake has been great. He knows his brake compounds very well and is willing to discuss his products. He also ships very quickly. Can't recommend RRP enough!

Same good results on a C5Z with ST47/43.

Good thing I have me some Hawk bucks. Gonna try to pull some more here in a couple weeks and set myself up for next year. A couple of slacker 3rd place finishes will get me for tires too.
