Brake pads for the track?

I will need to get decent pads for the track (i had not originally planned to take this car to the track, but...).

Anyway.... does anyone know if the pads will be the same as the EVO VII and where to buy some.

I need something similar to Porterfield R4S, but they usually crumble so Carbotech Panthers.?

thanks

I've had a lot of luck with Pagid pads, they keep the heat away from the discs so if you have good fluid (ATE superblue, Castrol SRF etc.) that can handle the heat they will minimize the need for upgrading the Discs with extended trcak use.

The "S" in R4S is for Street. I would expect a street pad to crubble in track situations, no? Try the Porterfield R4-E pads, nuch better for the track. I even use them on my street Eclipse, but I am fairly twisted when it comes to things like that :-P.
