Thanks guys for the advise.
I will try them to see what they are like. Cost isnt an issue with the purchase this time for me, however I wouldnt replace them for PCCB next time and just revert back to OEM steels or similar.
Do you find you have an issue getting them warmed up? I will be tracking the car in 20-45deg heat most of the time and no colder.

I had no issue with 'cold' brakes when I ran PCCB's with the OE P40 pads, braking was completely tire limited at all points. Car saw 0C-40C ambient

I also change out my front rotors to steel (with pagids) in the front, but leave the rears on the stock pccb set up for de and autocross. I'm sure its not the ideal set up but in terms of front to rear brake balance but it feels fine to me, and I'm told tracking the pccb's in the rear are not really going to hurt them because so much of the braking is up front in our cars.

Ah- "Basically" !! I can't steal a Monday or Tuesday normally- I see NNJR is there. Best I could do is "passover" the coming holiday on Monday 4/14- I'm running Lime Rock with CVR . I'll try not to use my brakes on the downhill to start !!

30k miles and 40-50 track days. I have been thinking about what I will
use when the 3 sets of pads I have are gone.

Tom,
I was running ATE Cayenne S rotor before, and then switched to Power Slot when I swapped out the ATE. They are a direct fit and very cheap!

I ran the P50 PCCB pads (left over) on them since they are just Pagid RS15. (So you don't have to throw away those pads, you can run them w/ iron rotors just fine) I also have RS29 pads.

funny enough, once I installed the boat-anchor ATE's on front, I found the suspension damping to be spot on, the added unsprung weight likely acting as increased 'spring rate' and better matching the factory damper's valving ...
