Hey Fellas -

Where are you guys getting your Pagid pads these days? For Carbon Ceramics.

Northstar Motor Sports. I did some light searching for a Canadian supplier but did not have much luck.
At the time there were zero pads available anywhere. May be better now. But I have a fresh set of pads on the car and a spare set so I am good for a bit.
Tikt has recommended running the Pagid Fronts and OEM rears.
Also Tikt had mentioned Pagid is working on a new compound.

Stock up, getting either OE or aftermarket is difficult. My OE pads lasted 6 track days, with about 5mm front and 3mm rear left.

Yeah, I am running Pagid currently as well. RSC1 that I scored from Bishman.

Will need to replace them shortly though. Had a couple of sessions on them last year.

They no doubt will work very well on track, but at the cost of potentially far greater rotor wear, hence from a cost/benefit standpoint I’d doubt it’s worth trying them unless the costs of replacing the OEM CCM rotors is not an issue for you. I would say that RSC1s plus rotor cooling front and rear from the Tikt ducts would be the optimal setup for the majority of owners; even those who are very fast.

Noted. I have your RCS1s currently and had the TIKT ducts mounted front and back over the winter. First day out will be March 14th at the track. Real curious how it all performs. Should have the Eurocharged stage 1 tune in on the 13th as well.
