EBC Brakes Racing RP-1™ Pads Tested on Track by Porsche Boxster S Owner
During the Porsche Club of America’s High-Performance Driving Event at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course back in October 2024, the owner of this 2003 Porsche Boxster S, Ashley, used the weekend as an opportunity to try out EBC Brakes Racing’s RP-1™ track/motorsport brake pads.
“I would highly recommend these to those who want brakes that can be used as a daily driver while converting them to track brakes with limited effort and ease. While braking on the track, my brakes are heavily worked with limited pad wear. They can take the heat and maintain a consistent pedal feel after multiple track sessions.”

EBC Brakes Racing Becomes Headline Sponsor of Gravity Show 2025
EBC Brakes Racing is delighted to announce it has become a headline sponsor of 2025’s Gravity Show, set to be held at Birmingham’s NEC on 23-24 August.
The Northampton-based braking firm initially attended the popular modified car event in 2024, deciding to boost its presence for 2025 in the form of this sponsorship as well as hosting a 10x10m trade stand.
Priding itself on attracting ‘the best show cars from around the world’, Gravity Show has grown significantly year-on-year, now acting as a staple on any self-respecting car enthusiast’s calendar. Attracting over 35,000 visitors across the weekend, you can expect a stunning array of static display vehicles within the indoor venue, as well as live action outside and the opportunity to meet some key automotive influencers.
EBC-Equipped McInnes Dominates Opening Round of FIM Bajas World Cup in Saudi Arabia
Dubai-based off-road motorcycle racer, Alex McInnes, has been competing in the FIM Bajas World Cup recently – known for its unforgiving rocky terrain and challenging navigation.
Securing third overall in the Junior category of the Qatar International Baja, held towards the end of 2024, McInnes continued to excel as the opening race of 2025 took place in Saudi Arabia a few weeks ago.
McInnes proudly uses EBC Brakes’ Carbon X-Series motocross brake pads and CX Extreme motocross discs on his Husqvarna FC 450.
Nicole Drought Set to Defend Trackday Championship Title in EBC Brakes Civic Type R
Following a sensational overall win in the 2024 MSVT Trackday Championship, Irish race driver Nicole Drought has recently unveiled a new EBC Brakes livery on her EP3 Honda Civic Type R, which she’ll use to defend her title in the 2025 season.
Previously competing alongside Justin Roberts, the duo has been running an EBC Brakes Racing Apollo Big Brake Kit for some time now, which was recently upgraded with the firm’s SR-11™ sintered endurance race pads – components which have helped them yield some great results in recent years. With Roberts not taking part this year, it’ll be up to Drought alone to pilot the car to victory this time.
