ferodo pads
Can anyone point me to a source for OEM pads "ferodo DS2500" other than a chevy dealer or suggest a pad that is similar to ferodo's. I struck out on the internet Car is a C6Z06 with stock calipers and rotors. Will be running a few track events as a new guy this year.

should have titled it "Race pads for stock C6Z06 calipers?" some will chime in soon.
there are 3-4 choices I think. See what Frank G. uses or Matt.

Essecs parts are the or one of the Fedaro importers
http://www.essexparts.com/
the web site is a bit dated.
Fedro catalog http://www.essexparts.com/CatalogPDF...-19_Ferodo.pdf
DS2500, DS3000, DS3000 plus and 4003 Motorsports are the pad compounds. You will also need the pad style
FPC1553, FCP1563 are the styles for the C5 and C6 calipers
The FCP1553 comes in DS2500 and DS3000
the FCP 1563 only comes in DS2500
If you know the style or pad number, plus the compound you want call Essex.
The are a BIG BIG Nascar parts supplier and the AP Racing Brake importer. I got some some thermal heat shield from them

Why is the dealer stocking racing pads? It looks like a really nice compound:http://www.ferodo.co.uk/ferodo_home/ click under motorsports for pad details.
They make a DS3000plus03 that has a cf of .72

Will do, everyone I spoke with including vendors from the forum stated that DS2500's are being kept with the GM dealers for the C6Z06. any pads out there that you guys have used that are similar that wont chew up the rotors that can be used for a novice at a few track events or is there no such thing? I've done a lot of reading from various companies about there compounds but I rather stick to the knowledge of the forum's race section
