1 The German ABE (Allgemeine Betriebserlaubnis) standard is a certification issued by the German Federal Motor Transport Authority (Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt or KBA). This certification indicates that a particular aftermarket automotive part or modification complies with safety and environmental regulations, allowing it to be legally used on vehicles in Germany. The ABE standard ensures that modifications or aftermarket parts meet specific quality, safety, and environmental standards set by the German authorities. It's crucial for ensuring that vehicles remain safe and compliant with regulations even after modifications or the installation of aftermarket parts.

Announcing the all new Racetech 4100 Series! The RT4100HR is a standard-sized fiberglass race seat equipped with head restraint wings for enhanced safety. Racetech focused on achieving a lightweight seat shell with optimized geometry, straddling the line between a seat wide enough in the shoulders to suit an athletic build, but narrow enough to fit in most cockpits.

Large harness guides and a removable molded base cushion allow a range of drivers of varying heights to fit comfortably. Breathable Spacer fabric, parallel sides, and pronounced thigh support round out the features of this accomplished motorsport seat.
For the larger driver, the RT4100WTHR is 60mm taller and 40mm wider than the Standard size. For those wanting a seat without head restraints, check out the Racetech RT4100 and RT4100WT. All 4100-Series seats use Racetech RTB1009M alloy side mounting brackets.

Racetech RT4119W Racing Seat
2028 Expiry
Racetech took their most popular seat and gave it a chop! The RT4119W (Wide) and RT4119WT (Wide & Tall) seats are based on the existing RT4119WHR and RT4119WTHR, but with the head restraints removed for improved visibility and access in track day type vehicles. This seat retains Racetech's unique, patented back mount design to give the driver ultimate support and feel for the chassis not available in basic floor-mounted seats. Customize your seat further with low base cushions or add side cushions for support in the thigh area.
These 119 seats without head restraints are not FIA homologated. These seats do not include an air ducting spigot, but when it gets hot in your Porsche or Pro Touring Camaro, you're just going to turn on your air-conditioning, right?
Ideal for HPDE/DE track cars, off-road desert trucks & outlaw drag cars when drivers can't use a head restraint seat.
Brackets and Mounting:
Side mount to the floor using Racetech RTB1009M 5mm aluminium brackets (please tick the box above when ordering).

DS3.12Released in 2019, the DS3.12 represents the latest advancement in Ferodo's renowned DS line. In the realm of sports cars, the demands placed on brake systems have intensified, with increased horsepower, sophisticated aerodynamics, higher curb weights, and stickier tires. Addressing these demands head-on, the Ferodo DS3.12 is a modern pad compound meticulously designed to cater explicitly to these challenges. Extensive testing has revealed that, among all pad compounds from various manufacturers, the DS3.12 exhibits the most consistent torque curve across a wide temperature range. Consequently, whether you're tackling turns, driving on any track or completing lap after lap, the brake pedal response remains remarkably consistent, offering exceptional reliability and repeatability. With a higher mu (friction coefficient) compared to Ferodo's other compounds, the DS3.12 requires less leg pressure to initiate the desired braking performance. Furthermore, it exhibits superior fade resistance, ensuring optimal performance at any temperature your brakes may encounter. Dyno testing has demonstrated that the DS3.12 maintains superior wear rates while being gentle on the discs. As a result, we anticipate the DS3.12 will establish itself as the benchmark against which other race compounds are measured.DS1.11The DS1.11, in contrast to the DS3.12, possesses a lower mu at all temperatures, making it a moderate mu pad in the realm of endurance racing compounds. It necessitates greater pedal force compared to the DS3.12 and exhibits a slight decline in torque as temperatures rise. Consequently, as you push deeper into a turn with increasing heat, you may find yourself applying more pressure on the brake pedal to achieve the same response—a sensation preferred by some drivers. Certain drivers find the DS1.11 to be more manageable when using street tires, particularly as it is less prone to activating the ABS system. While the DS1.11 offers a longer lifespan compared to many other pad compounds on the market, it falls slightly short of the longevity of the DS3.12. When maintained with a proper pad transfer layer, it remains gentle on discs even at elevated track temperatures. While the DS1.11 boasts excellent maximum temperature tolerance and fade resistance, it does not quite reach the same levels as the DS3.12. To date, we have not received reports of fading issues with the DS1.11, and most individuals differentiate between the DS1.11 and DS3.12 based on their respective tactile experiences.DS2500While we always recommend using dedicated race pads for track use, the DS2500 stands out as one of the premier hybrid street/track pads available. It combines the advantages of a track pad, such as a moderately high bite and solid fade resistance, with the comparatively lower levels of dust and noise typically associated with street pads. As a street pad, it may produce some squealing noise in specific vehicle applications, particularly when driven aggressively. For individuals who engage in spirited street driving, canyon runs, autocross, and occasional light track duty on street tires, the DS2500 is hard to surpass.
DS3000
The predecessor to DS1.11, DS3000 offers high initial bite with excellent feel and release. Popular among rally teams, DS3000 has a relatively low cold temperature threshold while still offering high temp stability for tarmac. DS3000 is very easy on discs at the expense of pad wear.

Girodisc
Corvette C8 Z06 Rear Rotors
$1,500.00
Fitment: Chevrolet Corvette C8 Z06
These GiroDisc 2-piece rotors are a direct replacement for the rear rotors on the Corvette C8 Z06 with or without the Z07 carbon ceramic brakes. Note that if your Z06 is equipped with the Z07 carbon ceramic brakes, you will need to use the rear pad shape from a factory iron Z06. Our 2-piece, fully floating assemblies help shed unsprung weight and rotating mass from the front axle of the vehicle.
The rotor rings are machined from a proprietary casting made of high-carbon steel formulated to GiroDisc’s specifications. This superior metallurgy results in a rotor that holds up better, and the 72 curved vanes act as a centrifugal pump pulling air in through the hub to effectively cool the rotors under hard use. The 2-piece design means a reusable hat which can be attached to new rings (part number D2-319) when they need to be replaced.
All major components including the hats, rotor rings, and drive pins are manufactured in-house at our facility in Bellingham, WA from domestically sourced materials. The hat is made from 6061-T6 aluminum and coated in a black anodize finish. The drive pins are made from a high-strength steel alloy and cadmium-plated for corrosion resistance. All rotors are assembled with spring clips and Belleville washers for race-ready float while also being street-friendly with no noise from loose hardware.
The minimum thickness at which we recommend replacing these rings is 32mm. We also recommend replacing them if a crack leads to the edge of the ring.
Sold and priced per pair.
