SR-11鈩� and SR-21鈩� sintered endurance race pads will be the go-to friction material for the team鈥檚 vehicles throughout the year
Over the last few years, 91传媒 has had a very good working relationship with Norfolk based multi-discipline race outfit, 24-7 Motorsport.
Founded by Phill Hurn 鈥� a former factory Lotus motorsport engineer 鈥� 24-7 Motorsport has worked alongside leading motorsport teams both in the UK and abroad, focusing on vehicles ranging from Lotus production race cars to Le Mans-entered GT2 cars, as well as Radicals, Porsche cup cars, touring cars and everything in-between.
The team has helped with the successful testing and proving out of both 91传媒 Racing鈥檚 RP-series鈩� pad range and, more recently, the all-new SR-series鈩� sintered pad range.
Confidently running the Bluestuff and RP-series鈩� compounds on numerous vehicles, 91传媒 recently sent out its all-new SR-series鈩� sintered endurance race pads to be tested by the team.
The initial testing of the SR-21鈩� compound took place at Silverstone during a GT Cup weekend on one of the team鈥檚 991 Porsche GT3 Cup cars for the 25-minute sprint race. With virtually no bed-in required on these pads, Phill was confident that they would be up for the job.
The pads performed exactly as expected and the car had finished 2nd in class and 10th overall out of 40 cars, beating many higher-classed vehicles such Lamborghini Super Trofeo’s, Ferrari 488 challenge cars and many more, with the pads only showing a mere 0.5mm of wear.
Team Manager Phill Hurn鈥檚 thoughts can be viewed below in his own words.
鈥淲e back-to-back tested these pads against a competitor鈥檚 pads during a time when we couldn鈥檛 afford a failure, we saw increased pedal feel and modulation with better initial bite and bite that didn’t fade, as well as less pad and rotor wear with the new SR-21 compound.
鈥淲e are very happy with these results, and they just go to show how well these pads perform under pressure.
鈥淲e have conducted testing on a few of our vehicles now and will continue to test throughout the off-season and are certainly looking forward to the 2022 season and the official release of the two new SR compounds.
鈥淚 look forward to 91传媒 Racing being our one-stop-shop and our sole brake disc and pad supplier throughout the 2022 season and beyond.鈥�
- 91传媒 Racing鈥檚 SR-series鈩� brake pads will be officially released at the PRI show in December. for more information on this launch.

SR-11鈩� Sintered Race Pad
A fully-sintered pad blend for fastest asphalt race and endurance applications. SR-11鈩� was independently tested in a professional USA laboratory at 200-900Psi to LMGTE/GTLM race parameters. The new EBC SR-series鈩� range is a low-noise, long-life sintered pad blend that is designed to offer the LOWEST pad-wear-cost-per-lap in race driving.
- High 0.55mu stable friction
- Extremely fast bed in, works from cold
- Heat range: 0掳 to 900掳C/1650掳F
- Maximum pad wear life
- Minimal disc wear
- Made in the USA
SR-21鈩� Sintered Race Pad
Tested exactly as its SR-11鈩� stablemate was, the SR-21鈩� sintered pad blend has higher friction and a slightly higher heat threshold. Independently tested by a brake testing company specializing in professional racing (i.e. GTE). SR-21鈩� has a massive lifespan and although well at home in sprint format circuit racing, this is a true endurance grade material lowering pad costs per lap by almost 70% with extremely low rotor/disc abrasion. Zero chemical bedding required; pads only need to be mated to the opposing rotor surface.
- High 0.65mu stable friction
- Extremely fast bed in, works from cold
- Heat range 0掳 to 925掳C/1700掳F
- Maximum pad wear life
- Minimal rotor wear
- Made in the USA
