Good all round fast road/track pad

- Start date
I'm out. You guys make this forum crap tbh. It's quiet as it is and I can understand why. So what people ask the same questions, don't reply simple. With the unhelpful replies you make means asking another question to be a firkin challenge. It's a forum at the end of the day. And before you say wipe your eyes etc I'm not bothered just dissapointed.

What did you expect?
You asked for advice which everyone has given based on personal experience. You then chose to ignore for no apparent reason.
Have you ever tried the DS2500's on track?
What was the point in this thread?

I'm disappointed that you choose to blatantly disregard sound advice too.
From what I can see your car isn't heavily modified, so 2500's are more than adequate.
By the way, I've seen the thread on CTRO that you have also posted on, and the mu recommendations are coming from someone who hasn't even done a track day which is the ironic part.
See you later mate.

Incase you are reading evo works I will give an example.
Last year at spa my teg was out all day long more or less, the set up was
2500's
OEM discs
RBF 600 fluid
Braided lines (do luck)
I never once suffered any kind of fade, however there were pad deposits which scrubbed off on the way home. No problem.
Earlier this month I was at Spa again.
This time I thought (foolishly) I would try a different set up
This time I tried
Dixcel slotted discs
Dixcel z type pads
I got these off a friend of mine who has used them on one track day,
I couldn't get on with them at all, after a couple of laps I'd get some very bad vibrations and it didn't fill me with much confidence, the discs weren't warped as they'd only do it after a couple of laps and not all the time.
I'd have to come in and 'rest' them before heading back out.
Needless to say that was annoying and I wish I had the same set up as last year.
I'm heading over there again shortly and this time I will be running some 2 piece AP racing rotors and 2500's, I'll be taking along my OEM discs though..
These ;
Please don't get arsey, many people on here have been around this scene for years and know what's what with these cars, you can say this forum is quiet, perhaps it is but there are plenty of people on here who have 'been there and done that'

Tbh I'm not really interested with your replies. Every time I question a tried and tested product you come along. Imagine if you decided on wether other companies decided to bring a product out. Sorry the xyz have been tried and tested so your product will be awful in comparison. And to note not everyone considers the ds to be the be all and end all of middle of the road pads. People do actually try something else and consider it to be better.

Rinse and repeat in every thread you start.
