Best Historic race meetings?

[CLbrakesUK]

Hi Guys, i am new here, but it seems to me that here is the place to ask the question.
I am the importer of Carbone Lorraine brakes in the UK, i have had some really good feedback using my Endurance pads on E type (Dunlop Caliper) and big Healeys (Type 16) both in racing and testing.
Because the pads are very small for the power and weight of these cars, this E compound really works
I am looking to put these results in to practice and promote at the track.
Which series are the leading ones in the UK?
I would like to get a look at the Spa 6 hour also, but more of a jolly than anything!
I always get a rush on pads before this event so it seems popular.

Thanks in Advance

Porsche 924 is one application where they seem well liked.

A few excellent meetings at Nurburgring as well,perhaps not quite as popular but better events.

Yes, i have supplied a few sets of those, Although since Gwyn at SMS passed away i dont think the drivers have known where to get them.

I used CLs this time round and they just got better as the race went on

Hmm,

We complain that FIA App K is being distorted by technology and here we have, possibly the lowest cost example of performance improvement. I am not personally complaining. However...................

Is this the chap I spoke with at Combe during the Bernies HRV8 race? I thought the pads were a bit expensive to be honest.

Yes, that was me.
For comparable brands we are good value.

It depends what you are used to..

I guess if you are doing a 6 hour race they have a place but for sprint races or even 40 minute races I couldnt justify the expence. The orange EBC's I was using in the Wilewood calipers that day were not at all good until I bed them in then they just got better and better I was quite impressed at the end of the day.

No, Mustang/Falcon is nothing like that.

These what i supply for a customer who has a Falcon, it is a Porsche pad.
So hence why i thought they were different.
