Lasted about a day up at Watkins Glen before I cooked them. I would have liked to try Pagids, but they're frightfully expensive. Most recently, I've been using pads from Paul Weston, which I believe are manufactured by Advanced Friction Technology. I ran the 03 and 04 race compound pads at the Glen: fantastic! Wouldn't recommend them on the street, though: lots of noise, no braking force unless they're _hot_. On the street, I've been using the AFT SportStreet compound, at least on the rear. These seem like a nice compromise, and I'll be dropping a set in the front as soon as I finish shredding the set of OEM pads that I've got now...
