I bought some Pagid RS-29 pads for track days, but I haven't tried them out yet.

Used the stock pads until they gave up the ghost. Did pretty well with some ATE 200 fluid.

I then switched to Porterfield R4-S pads with ATE 200 and stainless lines. They're even better (but squeal just a little on the street).

My next set is going to be EBC Yellowstuffs. Should be good, but I'll post a review.

I've run PFC 08's and Pagid RS-29's on other cars and have had excellent results with them (HPDE intermediate to intermediate+ level).

Should be just like that Brembo video you posted a while ago.
