Hawk “Brake-Through” Performers at ’24 #SCCARunoffs

Wednesday’s qualifying excitement couldn’t be stopped during the 60th anniversary SCCA® National Championship Runoffs® presented by Sunoco at America’s National Park of Speed in Wisconsin. Some of that was due to it being Hawk “Brake-Through Performer” day.

Thanks to Hawk Performance, a driver from each of the 26 car classes at the 2024 Runoffs who made the biggest improvement in qualifying position from Tuesday to Wednesday receives a free set of Hawk brake pads for a street car, race car, or tow vehicle. Winners must have posted Tuesday and Wednesday qualifying times to be eligible for the reward.

For more than 25 years, championship winning drivers and teams have demanded Hawk Performance motorsports brake pads. The company leverages its experience on the track, and technology used in aerospace and the military, to make first-class products in the USA.

Hawk’s advanced technology is also available for daily cars, trucks, and SUVs thanks to Hawk Performance street products. With the LTS compound for SUVs and Jeeps, Super-Duty pads for tow vehicles, and brake fluids for both the street and the racetrack, Hawk has every braking need covered.

The Official Brake Products of SCCA since 2003, Hawk also stopped hundreds of Runoffs volunteers from feeling hunger as the generous “Lunch Brake” provider of food and drink Wednesday.
