Info pulled off the Northeast A4 group website:<p><i>The Mintex C-Tech range is now available for high performance road users who need the assurance and confidence of high quality race and rally proven brake pads.<p>The Mintex C-Tech range has been especially researched, developed and manufactured to meet the high levels of stress and temperature produced during braking by todays performance cars. These pads will be appreciated by drivers who demand safety as well as speed. The Mintex C-Tech range is fitted by many of the top race and rally drivers competing today (including the Skip Barber cars). They prefer C-Tech materials for consistent pedal feel and stability which offer greater braking control.<p>The Mintex OE pad (Red Box pad) is also available through Camra. With this pad you will notice an increase in brake performance coupled with a lot less dust or pad residue. We are sure most A4 owners are quite aware of the fact that the factory pads are more than adept at producing massive and frequent amounts of dust.<p>In conclusion, if it's high performance road and track events, then it's the Mintex C-Tech for you. If spirited road use coupled with far less brake dust better describes your needs, then the Red Box is a great choice (and they're factory approved).<p>The Red Box cost: Front $74.63 Rear $46.56</i><ul><li><a href="http://camramotorsports.hypermart.net/brakes2.html">Camra Motorsports</a></li></ul>
