Hi Jon. Sorry we haven't managed to get a set of the EBC's heading in your direction yet. We're having a hard time keeping these in stock right now, particularly the fronts. As soon as the next big order arrives, I'll see if we can't do something for you.
Just several points here. EBC's "greenstuff" pads are NOT racing pads. They are defined as a "sport" pad. I HAVE used mine on shorter, low speed tracks, and they have performed quite well, although they DO wear a bit faster.
I would like everyone to understand that while these ARE "Eurobrakes" as Jon described, only their exposure, through "GreatBrakes" to the main body of Viper owners in this country is "new". EBC has been in business for 21 years, and while they probably remain best known worldwide for their outstanding motorcycle brakes, the AUTOMOTIVE pad catalog is already 230 pages, and a half-inch thick. In 1999, these "greenstuff" pads won the United Kingdom's largest import performance magazine "brake shootout", with the award "Best brakes for fast street cars". They also won the UK's Autotrade Magazine "Innovation Award", for their low dust feature in comparison to others. Anyway, the bottom line here is that these are the best "high performance" street pads I've ever seen, on any of my vehicles, ever. I knew a good thing when I saw it, and simply jumped on the bandwagon (well, maybe I helped nudge it along just a little bit as far as pushing them harder to ship more pads to the U.S.). The fact they are so inexpensive in this country, versus the competition, just makes it better.
For more of a racing use, especially on faster tracks, EBC offers two upgraded heat ranges and material. Unfortunately, EBC also hasn't made them widely available yet, and it's still going to take some time before supply meets demand over here. Give us a try at "GreatBrakes", and we think you'll be glad you did.
