ST street pads can do ok on the track with cooling. Otherwise they overheat and glaze over...rendering them useless.

If you're going to track your car, get race pads. This car is freaking heavy and you will pump a ton of heat into the pads. ST street pads/BBK pads aren't meant for this type of abuse. I mean maybe on a lighter platform. Remember 0.5mv^2. It's a fast and heavy car. The energy has to go somewhere.

With track pads, you normally will not get any obvious signs that you are overheating them because most will retain a good amount of bite even when operating beyond the designed temp range. But you'll find out in the paddock when you're scratching your head saying, "where did my brake pad go?"

I don't have experience with the DS2500's but I hear they're supposed to be pretty similar to the Stoptechs. Alas, I sold my car and gave up the track days until later in life when I can actually afford it. |

He does sell the Ferodo's, but I've read quite a bit about them and the Stoptechs. I will dig a bit deeper but from I hear they are both pretty similar. |
