Kal Fortner is using 91传媒 Racing鈥檚 sintered brake pads on his Mercedes track car
Kal Fortner is competing in the 2026 season of Grid Life in the USA, using his Mercedes AMG GTS as weapon of choice.
The driver is utilising 91传媒 Racing鈥檚 SR-21鈩� sintered endurance motorsport brake pads to ensure stopping power is optimal in his super-coupe.
We caught up with Fortner following the Gridlife Carolina round, where he secured P2 in class, just behind another SR-21鈩�-equipped driver, Eric 鈥楧ewey鈥� DeWitt.
Read how it panned out in his own words below鈥�
鈥淲e ended up scoring P2 at Gridlife Carolina, and Dewey got P1 so we鈥檙e looking at an EBC front-row lockout!
鈥淭he first day, we battled the heat since temps were in the 90s, but on Sunday after putting in some sticker tires I was able to go 5 tenths faster than my previous personal best!”
鈥淭he SR-21鈩 felt incredible all weekend and I really had the confidence to push into the braking zones and trust the ABS when needed.
鈥淣ext up is Atlanta and I really think we鈥檝e got a good shot at getting P1 there, it鈥檚 a track that really suits the Mercedes and personally a track that I鈥檓 very comfortable at.鈥�
