Discs and Pads for track days

[zacgfc]

Done first track day in my clio today, 172 on a y plate.
Discs weren't all that anyway but brakes started to fade pretty quick, so i'm after a half decent set up.

What pads and discs do people recommend for track?

Car doesn't get used on road, is just a track car.

I would prob say brembo hc discs with ds3000 pads.

Or use the ones that come up when the search function is used

With the standard calipers, I ran DS2500's, Motul RBF600 fluid and a full set of braided lines.

They were adequate, but I did feel a need for better, so we have since changed to 4 pots but still run on the same fluid and with DS2500 pads and have had no problems with them atall, i can't fault them and I do love them

Been covered to death, just search 'brake' in this section.

This. Be prepared to ruin wheels/ bodywork though.

I've just ordered ds3000 for my 4 pots, but only use the car on wknds and track days. If I wash the car after use the paintwork should be fine I take it?

Whats a decent compromise then? Ds2500's being the obvious choice but what else? Sorry to sort of hijack the thread btw

3000s are overkill unless you are playing last of the late breakers. I run 2500s no problem, only others I would consider are Pagid Blues but haven't tried them so can't comment.

I am running DS2500's, they are superb.

Arent pagid blues mortgage repayment material?
