Stoptech Sport Brake Pads experience on track

It was my 3rd track day this year last Sat.

I have Pagid RS-29 front and RS4-4 rear for the first 2 days.
Recently have purchased Stoptech Sport brake pads for street use as I knew my wife was not happy about the noise that any track pads make.

Swapped to Stoptech and ran 3 hours 1 day session break between every 6 laps.
And what a surprise. This thing held up very well. I am not comparing directly to Pagid but they are actually way better than I expected.
Not much fade. Not much of losing pressure feeling after.

Well, it was not really full day track so cannot really tell over-extended hours of use and abuse, but at least I can say they are more close to racing pads than street pads. Multiple times better than stock. Very surprised.
Cheaper in price. HOWEVER, I have not check the wear yet as I did not swap it back again to Pagids.

But at least for those back-road winding weekend fun use, this will do way f**king better than the stock.

Edit: and pad deposit on rotors were surprisingly small as well...
