racing although it's initial development was through CART Champ
Cars. 97 compounds have won races in CART, ALMS, Grand Am, and ASA.
It is also a preferred pad for touring car and rally. Higher bite
than 90 compound with slightly higher torque. Great modulation,
very flat torque curve with enhanced release characteristics. 97
compounds are very easy on the discs, with very low wear. This
compound is becoming a favorite of driving schools because it
shares similar characteristics as 90 compounds but even less wear.
