Let's try that last question again, now that i've messed with a Dynapro caliper or two.
Dynapros do not have cotter pins. Does PFC make the 01 in a pad that fits Dynapro directly? Currently running 7752 PFC01s in my Dynapros, needed to grind the top of the backing plate to clear the middle portion of the e-clip. No other modifications required. I'm cool with this if that's really my only option. Follow up question: PFC Powerlite fitment? Y/N? |

I have found a few formula car that uses pfc pads in a power-light but cannot find the part number. owners usually don't know it. If they are withholding information to gain an advantage is debatable. they might be sending a pad that's similar to a pad cutter and having them shaped to fit. |

For the dynapro and using the W shaped spring clip retainer, yes you'll need to cut the backing plate. Wilwood does offer two pins to replace the W clip, and that would solve your issue. i bet McMaster car also has some retaining pins that would fit. they will probably be $20 for a pack of 25.

The dynapro is slightly wider than the dynalite in the area where the clip passes through, just enough so that Wilwood's cotter pin for a DL won't work in the DP. I searched McMaster and similar sources for an off-the-shelf cotter pin with enough length and correct diameter to serve this function and came up dry.
We are having PFC 01/11 custom cut to fit the Dynapro 4 and the Powerlite. I just haven't gotten around to officially putting them on our site. In fact, I have a set of fresh 01's for Powerlite here for my car that I was going to use before I switched over to Stoptech calipers if you need a set soon-ish. |

For Dynapro, Powerlite, or both? "Need" is a strong word, i could probably have my car back up and going with some 01s for rear 1.8 calipers and a new pair of wilwood rotors up front, but i wasn't feeling super great about having to choose between Powerlites OR 01s in the back, long term. So... thanks for the good feels. :)

200 mph IndyCars possible on road courses in 2018 Although the exact figures are still being calculated, IndyCar aero director Tino Belli expects...... The appreciable jump in straightline speed has also had an effect on the new 2018 braking system made by the Performance Friction Corporation.

Thanks. I don't want to thread jack since this is the OG-specific thread, but this was very relevant to the discussion.
You mentioned you had already ground down a set of 7112 shape front pads to fit the DP4 so I assumed you only really need pads for the rear Powerlite for the moment. I have a set of Powerlite 01's on my desk here. At any rate, we'll have plenty of PFC pads for both the Powerlite and DP4 on the shelf here in a week or so. |
Kenton Koch Sweeps Both Prototype Challenge Races
https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...0355f7512f.jpg Kenton Koch and the P1 Motorsports team took the No.8 Ligier JS P3 to the track under wet conditions. However, they prevailed and captured the LMP3 Victory without troubles. The Sunday afternoon race had more favorable weather conditions, with Koch behind the wheel and reducing his lap times as the race kept on. Posting the race's fastest lap at 1 min, 2.430 seconds, he eventually had a nearly 28 second lead over the second place position. Sweeping the Prototoype events, the Ligier proved to be a beast in both wet and dry conditions, equipped with PFC Brakes. Read more about it here.
