You mean use OEM on the street w/ Carbotech 8/8 on a track weekend?
What I've been reading here and there and everywhere is that Carbotech pads leave a different kind of surface deposit than other pads, and it's not recommended to switch between Carbotech-type pads and non-Carbotech pads on the same set of rotors, as you'd have trouble re-bedding properly unless you sanded/ground off the old pad material each time. I suppose in reality it's more about whether it's the same type of compound, not the brand name.
