I ran HT-10s for the track and they pretty much ripped what ever old deposits that were on my rotors off.

I really wanna try Carbotech XP-8s. I ran them briefly on my last Evo and the initial stopping power on them was sick.

I'm using HP+'s all around (street and track) with 3 inch brake cooling ducts in the front. I didn't notice a big enough difference in stopping power or pad wear between the HP+'s and the HT-10's to get me to spend more for the HT-10's.

You're probably right. The HT-10s were an impulse but that I'm ashamed to admit. I was expecting a lot more initial bite. The pad pretty much felt the same as it did from the start of my session to the end for all 5 of them.

My only other experience with pads on a track were with Project Mu, HPS, and XP-8s briefly. I really wanna try the Carbotech pads again.
