Racingline RP700 Performance Upgraded Rear Brake Pads – MQB EVO 310x22mm Disc

Racingline RP700 Performance Upgraded Rear Brake Pads – MQB EVO 310x22mm Disc

If you enjoy driving your car hard, you have probably felt that moment when the brakes start to lose their bite after repeated heavy use. This is known as brake fade, and it is the main reason standard pads struggle on spirited road drives and track days. The Racingline RP700 Rear Brake Pads (VWR670010) are designed as a direct replacement for your factory rear pads, giving you far greater resistance to heat and a much more confident pedal feel, all while using your existing brake hardware.

This particular set is made specifically for vehicles fitted with the MQB EVO platform’s 310x22mm ventilated rear disc setup, found on a wide range of performance VW, Audi, SEAT, Cupra and Skoda models. Use the site’s vehicle lookup or check the Vehicle Fitment tab to confirm the correct pads for your car.

What the RP700 compound delivers

Racingline spent over a year developing and testing the RP700 friction material on both road and track. The result is a medium hardness pad using an aramid fibre compound that strikes a careful balance: strong initial bite from cold, with the high temperature stability needed for harder driving. There is no warm-up lap required, so the pads feel right whether you are heading to the shops or pushing on through a favourite back road.

Pedal feel was a major focus during development. Rather than a sharp, grabby response, the RP700 offers a progressive build-up of braking force, making it easier to judge exactly how much stopping power you are applying. This is particularly useful when braking hard from high speeds or trail braking into corners.

Key benefits

• Significantly improved resistance to high temperature brake fade
• Direct fit replacement using your factory brake calipers and discs
• Strong cold bite, so no compromise in daily driving
• Progressive, predictable pedal feel for better braking control
• ECE R90 approved for road legal use

ECE R90 approved

In most countries, including the UK, brake pads sold for road use must carry ECE R90 certification. Many aftermarket performance pads skip this step. The RP700 pads are fully ECE R90 approved, giving you the assurance that they meet strict legal and safety standards for road use as well as performing on track.

Ideal use

The RP700 is best suited to fast road driving and occasional track day use, while remaining well-behaved in everyday traffic. If your car spends most of its time being driven enthusiastically with the odd circuit visit thrown in, this is the pad designed for you.

Important: This set is for the 310x22mm ventilated rear disc setup only. Vehicles fitted with solid rear discs require a different RP700 pad set. Always confirm fitment using the vehicle lookup tool or the Vehicle Fitment tab before ordering. As with any new brake pads, follow a proper bedding-in procedure to ensure the friction material transfers correctly to the disc and delivers full performance.
