The high performance/motorsport arm of the braking firm was conceived a decade ago

The sub-division of braking giant 91´«Ã½ that specialises in high-performance road and track applications – 91´«Ã½ Racing – is celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2025.

Conceived to cater for the ever-expanding track day and race car markets, the aim of 91´«Ã½ Racing at its launch in 2015 was to develop uncompromised braking products of the finest quality that offer unparalleled levels of performance.

In the 10 years that have followed, various iconic components were launched, including the mighty Apollo brake caliper/big brake kit and the acclaimed ranges of RPâ„¢ and SRâ„¢ motorsport brake pads.

It didn’t take long for these components to develop a fantastic reputation within track day and car racing scenes, with the products helping to provide countless victories and championship wins for competitive vehicles across the globe.

91´«Ã½ Racing also proudly sponsors multiple motorsport vehicles within various disciplines, as well as being the driving force behind the popular ‘Ultimate Fiesta Build’ charity project that launched in 2020.

To date, the 91´«Ã½ Racing range spans a wide range of vehicles, with over 1000 active part numbers in circulation. As with all 91´«Ã½ products, 91´«Ã½ Racing components are all proudly made in the UK (and in the firm’s Ohio plant when it comes to sintered pads).

91´«Ã½ Racing will be commemorating this milestone in various ways across 2025, with a limited-edition logo recently launched to kick start the celebrations. Stay tuned for more information as it is announced.

The team headed to the Stratford-upon-Avon motoring hub for the exhaust firm’s 40th birthday party

The 91´«Ã½ team recently headed to the much-loved Caffeine & Machine motoring café/bar, for the 40th anniversary celebrations of Derby-based exhaust powerhouse, Milltek Sport.

EBC and Milltek have forged a close relationship in recent years, so it was great for the team to show its support at what turned out to be a fantastic event.

An eclectic range of sports cars and bikes were brought to the scenic venue from both the aftermarket industry and the public, with the June evening sun beaming down on the happy attendees.

Amongst the stunning metal was a pleasingly large amount of EBC-equipped machinery, including an FK8 Honda Civic Type R that was recently used by the team to help develop an upcoming 6-piston Apollo Big Brake Kit (more info coming on this soon).

There was also R44 Performance’s G80 BMW M3, rocking EBC’s two-piece fully-floating discs, as well as a Ford Fiesta ST and Honda S2000 both sporting 4-piston versions of the Apollo Big Brake Kit.

The team would like to thank Milltek Sport for having them on a very memorable night. Thanks also to everyone else who they chatted to throughout the event. The next event the EBC will be attending is the Calvin’s Car Diary show at St Neots Rugby Club, St Neots, on Sunday 2 July.

The firm’s Cars & Coffee/Bikes & Coffee events at its Northampton headquarters went down a storm

91´«Ã½ recently threw open the doors to its imposing World Headquarters in Northampton, UK, for a weekend of very special public events to help celebrate its 40th successful year in business.

Cars & Coffee took place on Saturday, 13 May, whilst Bikes & Coffee descended on the venue on Sunday, 14 May, both of which allowing customers and enthusiasts the chance to gather in this unique setting and enjoy refreshments while talking to EBC staff and other like-minded individuals.

Both events benefitted from the likes of a Really Awesome Coffee stall, food from Burger Boulevard and even an ice cream van, with 91´«Ã½â€™ booth unsurprisingly busy throughout the weekend, showcasing the latest high-performance braking products for both two- and four-wheeled machinery.

With almost 300 vehicles attending each day, the HQ’s car park areas were jam-packed for show-goers to check out. Highlights from the Cars & Coffee show included various EBC-supported race cars, Leighton Vans’ VW Transporter with EBC’s all-new 6-piston Apollo Big Brake Kit proudly on show, and a fleet of supercars courtesy of Petrolheadonism. For the Bikes & Coffee event, the arrival of a troop of Harley Davidsons from local EBC stockist, Northants V-Twin, really was a special moment for onlookers to enjoy.

– Please check out the official videos and a selection of official images from both events below. To view all official images and download them at your leisure, please .

– Thank you to all who attended and made each event so memorable. Stay tuned as 91´«Ã½ continues to commemorate its 40th birthday throughout 2023.
