Pads for track purposes
I need some help:
The OEM pads don't resist to track days. So, is possible that some body can tell the reference of sport pads to my car (997.2 2009 Carrera 4).
Thanks

Either you need to swap to track pads for track days (Pagid Yellow for instance), OR, the ONLY dual purpose pad I've seen that works fine both on/off track is "Ferodo 2500".
I've had them installed on my 07 C4S, and they've been absolutely incredible both on track and street.

if you are not in white/black groups level yet those may work for you as they are cheap and work so-so well.

if you are at advanced level and run on R6 or slicks - go with PFC 01 or Pagid Yellow. PFC has better initial bite but eats rotors faster than Pagids RS29.

I would have you run the Pagid RS4-4 (orange) all around to start with. These gives you the same initial bit as the RS29's and are not as harsh on the rotors as the PFC's... When you move into the higher groups (or skill level) and start using more advanced braking techniques... (as well as adding R compound tires) then I would suggest the PFC's or Pagid RS29's in the front and Pagid RS14's in the rear. Then, when you are ready for slotted rotors... we can fix you up with OEM style slotted rotors that are direct bolt on units. Do not require you to shim the Caliper or modify each and every set of pads you purchase.

What level of track experience do you have? What problems are you having with your stock pads? Are you getting brake fade, or are you just wearing through them quickly?
It would also be helpful to know which tracks you are driving also, as this information will be helpful in making a recommendation.
Kind regards,
