No road use what so ever. Just track.

Red Stuff?

DS2500?

Carbon L's?

I've been told the CL's are gash, don't fit correctly. Never had a problem with the ds2500's myself.

to be honest, the only one out of all of them that i have heard anything negative about is the red stuffs

You get what you pay for.

mintex 1177 on my track car with ap brake fluid. never had brake fade with this set up. the down side is that they make alot of noise when cold and the dust from the pads is not wheel friendly, so cleaning the alloys after use is a must(like most performance pads). i have a new set mintex 1177 for sale if ur interested due upgrading to 4pots.

we've got mintex F4 pads in our wilwoods. not sure if there's a std clio fitment yet, but they're the b****cks. very similar to carbone lorraine.

Dont touch EBC anything, DS3000 would be better than DS2500 for purely track.

Can't comment on PF, though they do have a good rep

PFs are good but too messy.

Blues are solid but boring, no bite from cold.

CLs let you (and everyone else) know they're working.

Can't comment on any others, but for track use alone out of the above, CLs for me every time.
