I don't want to 'think about' my brakes working - just want them to work - and that's what I get with these.

Ferodo UK

These pads are not made for the street, as most of you know.

There is an endurance version of this pad if your budget requires it... I think someone around here was going to try the endurance version - would be curious to hear their thoughts.

So you are using these for autocross? I would be willing to try out the endurance version since I'm going to do some road racing if they are indeed suggested for that.

no, road courses... they work reasonably well at low temps, so I don't think they'd be bad at ax, but you may want to ask folks that regularly ax for input if you're at all serious about it... gl

So what would be one step up from the stocker pads? Something suitable for street / auto-x without noise and chewing up the rotors.
