š„GP1 Podium at COTA! S Collective Racing’s Porsche Cayman powered through 305 laps, 15 hours, and every challenge of the weekend in @worldracingleague —including a loose shifter cable, a blown tire, and even a small fire!
Proud to see our brakes helping them cross the finish line and we appreciate them doing some compound testing for us!

We recently helped out a racer in desperate need of some pads before @worldracingleague at COTA for his Boss 302. He just sent us an awesome review after the weekend!
“The team at Riser-Harness Ford Racing could not be happier with our entire experience with Cobalt Racing brake pads and the Cobalt team. We reached out to Cobalt in a slight panic, because our typical manufacturer for brake pads had called and said they couldn’t get us brakes in time for a big race weekend at COTA. With only 9 days before the race and a holiday in between we weren’t sure if we were going to be able to make the race at all. But Eddie and the team at Cobalt came in CLUTCH. They were able to custom make us two sets of pads to meet our pad shape and desired performance for our endurance car AND deliver them in less than 4 days. Having never used the pads we were not sure what to expect, but we were beyond pleased. Initial bite was amazing, tons of feel through modulation/trail braking, and after a full test day and 15 hours of racing at one of Americas most grueling tracks the first set of pads still look amazing. I’m really not sure how they do it. I’ve never seen pads perform this well while simultaneously wearing as well as these. And the rotors still look great. Prior to this race I had never considered using cobalt pads, but now I can’t imagine using anything else. I’m a customer for life.” -Ryan Harness
Thanks for trusting us Ryan and congrats to you and your team on a P12 finish out of 28 cars!

Ride with fast guy @speedsmith225 for half a lap around @thunderhillracewaypark in Black Flag Racing’s V8 LS powered RX7 that is equipped with our Cobalt pads. This 3:06 lap was the fastest out of 89 cars during @raceluckydog qualifying during the 1000 miles of Thunderhill finale.

Our XR series pads are designed to provide fantastic torque and modulation demonstrated well here by our customer @sewell6669 at the SCCA Runoffs in his STL class Acura Integra. He brought home a hard earned 5th place finish battling some well prepped NC Miatas.

K24 swapped Elise! @jakeguzman1 finished 2nd place in TT4 at the @drivenasa Championships at Ozarks earlier this Fall! He is also part of @team_autosolve and is excited to be competing in his new-to-him ST1 C5 Vette he’s building for next year.
Thanks for representing us Jake! š¤

So rad! Check out John Pearson’s freshly built C6. It’s already a proven winner getting an ST1 victory in @drivenasa a few weeks ago! Well done to John, Eric, and the whole team on the build. We’re glad to be a small part of the equation!

Drenth sequential in an LS1 powered E36 M3. @scottm2me has been developing this car for the past few years. It’s a neat build that’s going to continue getting quicker next season.

“Most Bestest Driver Award” in GridLife GLTC went to our man @misteak86 ! This was voted on by series drivers to pick the person that embodies the best qualities on track, in the paddock, and on social media. Very well deserved for a high character guy who worked super hard this season. We’re proud to have him representing us!
