With the need for a better compound for our own racecar, and the lack of aftermarket brake support for the Veloster Turbo in general, we're proud to introduce the Piercemotorsport VTRS4 Performance front brake pad for the 2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo! We've gone to Porterfield Enterprises, one of the best/leader's in performance brake pads and endurance brake compounds-with over 40 years of experience winning races, to construct a performance front brake pad. The compound developed for the Veloster Turbo is dual purpose, suitable for performance driving on the street and of course the much needed increased performance for the track/autocross. The VTRS4 pad features-
Reduced stopping distances* Reduced brake fade in performance driving situations* Compound performs flawlessly with rotor temps over 1000 degrees* Easy on rotors with easy break in procedure* Lower brake dust and non corrosive dust* Low noise/feedback!!!* Best balance between initial bite and pedal effort* I've been racing for over 25 years and I can tell you in a roadrace car the pedal that wins endurance races is the one in the middle! Getting the brake balance perfect and developing the brake system to withstand the duration of the event is crucial to finishing on the podium. With that said you can't take a race pad compound and run it on the street---the pads will literally eat the rotors up and you'd be living with dust filled rims, crazy brake noise and of course changing rotors every 15k mi!!! We've got the absolute best balance between the race compound and street compound I've ever seen/had the pleasure of driving with. We've used many different brands (I should clarify that---we've tried nearly every major performance compound over the years) and the RS4 is just simply my favorite. This is a high end pad and shouldn't be compared to brands like EBC/Hawk/Metal Matrix etc---those pads serve a purpose in the market for an affordable off the shelve bump in performance. This pad was built with increased performance in mind and will perform at much higher level's than the above. |

Mercedes GLA goes in to production in Germany
Sat, 07 Dec 2013The Mercedes GLA (pictured) goes in to production The new Mercedes GLA – Mercedes’ latest spin-off from the A Class – arrived at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September as an urban SUV come Crossover, extending Mercedes reach in the premium compact sector with a serious competitor in the urban SUV market. With the growing fondness for high-riding cars – and something that’s a bit butch too – the SUV/Crossover take on the Mercedes A Class is a sound way to go and now, with production starting in Germany this week of the new GLA, Mercedes is getting close to having the GLA in customers’ hands. The first GLAs to get in to the hands of customers will probably be the GLA Edition 1 – a launch model with plenty of toys – but the model that will perhaps be most interesting is the GLA 45 AMG, with the promise of the same rufty-tufty compact SUV goodness as the rest of the range but with the 4WD platform and high performance 2.0 litre Turbo from the A 45 AMG.
Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT S (2007): first official pictures
Tue, 28 Aug 2007By Ben Pulman First Official Pictures 28 August 2007 11:10 Super-saloon It is, but Quattroporte sounds better than ‘four-door’ - which is the literal translation - and when the whole thing is said in an Italian accent then there are few more evocative names on the market. Add Sport GT S to that and you’re now looking at the most focused Quattroporte yet. The Quattroporte Sport GT S (and no, I’m not paid by the word) builds on the Sport GT package but takes this saloon one sporting step further.
