Default Best front rotor and pads for track use?

Time to replace my front brakes again. I have been using yellow 29 Pagid pads and Deman rotors.
A friend said to try Race Technologies RE10 pads. Anyone try them? He said they were rotor friendly and lasted well.
What other slotted rotors are out there now that don't cost too much and wear good?

The factory RSR has been using the new Pagid RSL compounds with great success. We have the rear pad in RSL available now and should have the front soon.

re10 pads are around $700 for the fronts. Dying to try them, but not ready to spend $1100 for 4 corners.

^I was on that set-up with deman rotors but with rs19 pads(rs29 is the newer version) and stock rear rotors on rs 19's using castrol srf brake fluid. Never had any issues with that set-up and they lasted a season for me ie about 12-14 trackdays. How many days did yours last? Mike

Deman lasted 14 for me. Supposedly that's decent for most track cars.

Same here Deman front rotors and pagid 29's all around. Also, Castrol SRF. I get multiple DE seasons out of the Deman rotors.

We run Brembo rotors with RE10 pads on our cup cars and are extremely pleased with the performance and overall life. The best we have seen so far and we have tried a lot of different pad / rotor combos.
