DS2500

Although we always recommend using a dedicated race pad for the track, the DS2500 is one of the best hybrid street/track pads on the market. It features the moderately high bite and solid fade resistance of a track pad, with the relatively low dust and noise levels of a street pad. When used as a street pad, it can produce some squeal on certain vehicle platforms. During aggressive driving the DS2500 is known for its flat torque curve, which means as temperatures go up, the response through the brake pedal remains consistent. If you drive aggressively on the street, do some canyon runs, autoX, and maybe some light track duty on street tires, the DS2500 is tough to beat.

When used on high HP, heavier cars (2,800 lbs+) on the track with race tires, pad wear rates tend to be higher than on Ferodo Racing’s other pad compounds. Under those conditions, Essex would recommend the Ferodo DS1.11 or DSUNO.

Features

• Track day & light race use for all vehicle types
• Road style refinement but with race material ability to withstand heat with respect to life and µ
• Average friction coefficient of 0,41 over working temperature range of 0° – 500° C

Below are the official compound descriptions from Ferodo Racing Italy. Please note that the primary value of these graphs is to compare the Ferodo Racing compounds against each other. Comparing the absolute numbers below to published numbers from other manufacturers is of little value, and would be akin to comparing engine dyno graphs from different dyno types (Dynojet vs. Mustang Dyno, etc.). Again, if you’re unsure which compound is right for your needs, please contact us for a recommendation.
