Rear discs and pads.

Any recommendations for rear discs and pads for track use they don’t do much but I cracked a rear disc on two track outings so want to avoid! Any suggestions appreciated.

I think has used mintex or similar.
Usual suspects are brembo.

Generally only crack due to sticking calliper.

I've fitted numerous sets of minted and had no issues. I know someone said bearings don't last on track but had a pair on the wife's car tjat have done best part of 80,000 miles and bearings are sweet still.

I think I may have had a sticking caliper. New ones now though. I’ll go mintex then half the price.

Sticking caliper is been cause for the rear discs to crack, due to the excessive heat

You want to be running the Brembo or Renault rear discs on track, the other makes bearings just don't last on track (I can supply pretty much all the main manufacturers including Mintex) . Especially when using sticky tyres. All the guys I supply brakes to who track and race their cars now run Brembo or Renault only due to the better bearings
