Joe, thanks for the info, and the pleasure was mine! Hopefully I'll see you at another track event.

I am now addicted to "this track stuff". As a beginner, the OEM pads worked just fine for me, but I would not run another track event on these same pads. Should I buy a set of track pads to put in before I go to an event, and swap them out when I go home?
I am thinking that I could probably get two weekends out of a set at my skill level.

Also, from what people said at the event a lot of the pad preferences seemed to be based on what people are used to. People were saying "well, there might be better pads out there, but I know how my car is going to react with these, so I stick with them.". That makes a lot of sense to me, but doesn't help me chose the pads I buy.

So, what do I get (please be specific), and where do I buy them?
