I use Hawk HP+ and I love them. They tend to eat rotors and dust a lot though.

I used the HAWK HPS and they're great at Auto-x and road courses. They still hold up great after 3 road course events. At each event I did over 20 laps and they're were two corners where I threshold brake. One i slow down from 90mph to about 30mph the other corner I go from 65mph to about 20mph.

So in all they are great, I think I should start checkin the pads tho after all that racing, but I been lazy. As far as drag racing goes, stock should be fine unless you're running some crazy amount of horsepower.
