The OEM PP pads are very nice. Good bite. They are a good compromise probably for street and track, although faster guys doing longer sessions will need more. For you, this may be the ticket.
Ended up finding the OEM pads at my local dealership!

Part number for the fronts is FR3Z-2001-N! The have a little FER stamp on the back that shows they are the Ferodo Pads!

Yes I did. Done Summit Point and also Dominion Raceway down in Virginia. I've been out maybe 5 or so times. I'm a beginner so folks should take my knowledge with a large grain of salt. But, the car was pretty quick. I've usually finished in the top 3 in my class and top half or top quarter of drivers overall. I want to do HPDE but the car isn't ready for that. My car is a Base GT and so, I'll need a larger radiator at a bare minimum I reckon, if I want a chance at finishing a full session.
How was dominion? I’ve only done Jefferson circuit for trackcross at summit point.
Really think you’d need a bigger radiator for first couple HPDEs? I’m on a base GT too

It's fun! My friend though didn't care for it much. It has a good mixture of turns and speeds. The only thing is, you will have concrete barriers to contend with which can be a bit puckering. There's one at the end of a straight where you need to slow down from 130mph down to ~40mph.

Yeah, I think so, based on what other people have said. I have done full suspension and PP brakes, but I have done zero cooling mods. A track sprint is one thing, but doing consistent lapping will generate a lot of heat.

Yep! They're good pads. Their bite surprised me. I had the back end kick out on me while on the brakes entering a turn because I didn't expect them to bite like that. Luckily I reacted quick and saved it. Driver error LOL.

Well I am definitely excited to see how that bite feels! I prefer cars with a strong initial bite!

Yeah it happened at about 80-90 mph! Yeesh lol. It was a mid speed corner where the exit is somewhat blind. I felt a little twitch and I had to react. It definitely surprised me. Driver error for sure.

Yes, all the OEM front Brembo pads are contracted to Ferodo for Brembo. I tried a set of DS2500's for one event, not the same as OEM (no bite)

Fords service part number through Motorcraft is BRF1553. The Factory Part number Suffix changed from C to N because they went from Italy to Mexico from what we could tell. The compounds are have likely never changed since 2015. Brembo Opened a cross-border facility to be closer to the OEMS, all of which they supply US/Canada/Mexico produced vehicles equipped with Brembo branded brakes.
