Hyundai Excel Cup brakes.
Excel racing is the most-participated circuit category in the country — a control-tyre, control-car class where the brakes are one of the few places you're allowed to make a real difference. Front pads take almost all the work: light car, short straights, heavy trail braking into slow corners, and back-to-back sprint races with no time to cool.
Know your caliper, not your car.
These are the caliper families Hyundai Excel Cup cars run. Pick yours to see every brand and compound we can supply for it, with the manufacturers’ published operating temperatures side by side.
What to run, and why.
Sprint races are short and the pads never get a cooling lap, so cold bite matters as much as peak temperature. A trackday compound is usually the sweet spot; step up a grade only if you're fading in the closing laps.
Every caliper page lists the compounds we stock for that shape with the manufacturer’s own published operating temperature and friction figures — so you can match the pad to your session length and car weight instead of guessing from a product name.
