Description
HAWK Performance DTC-60 Brake Pads
Running with extremely high deceleration rates and increased downforce poses different challenges, so Hawk designed DTC-60 race compound. Recommended with DTC-70 when split friction between axles is desired, it has excellent modulation and release characteristics.
Expert Opinion
DTC-60 has the same temperature range as DTC-70, but produces less brake torque. Many racers of lighter, smaller cars such as the Miata and S2000 will run DTC-60 Front and DTC-30 Rear. On larger, heavier, cars such as Corvettes, Mustangs, Porsches, BMWs and other specialty race cars, the DTC-60 is run on the rear with DTC-70 up front. This is not an entry level race compound and should not be driven on the street. Use when you are a serious racer with track experience and have had issues with less aggressive compounds overheating or not providing enough bite.

Expert Opinion
In addition to the applications mentioned above, the DTC-30 compound is often used on the rear axle of smaller race vehicles. Competitive racers of the Miata or S2000 will often choose DTC-30 for the rear axle paired with DTC-60 on the front. DTC-30 will also find itself on both axles of street driven vehicles when braking performance is top priority and owner is willing to sacrifice cleanliness and lack of brake noise.
