I know this has been discussed a lot before but with the new site, difficult to track down old articles.

I want to get a view on best pads for Track Days. I have tried Mintek 1155 and Red Dot. The Mintek's were good but expensive and didn't last long. The Red Dot's give a really soft feel. Interested in any other suggestions or perhaps somewhere where I can get some cheap 1155's

They are for a 325.

Thanks

I recommend Ferodo DS2500 used em myself and they seemed to stand up great even with heavy braking on r-tyres on the downhills at the 'ring

prob cost you Ԛ£125 for set of fronts and rears though
