Gentlemen,
I'm looking for a little advice on road course pads. I'm still in the novice run group and the OEM PP pads have performed flawlessly. I will be coming up on my 3rd event at COTA (1 at MSR Houston, and 1 at COTA) with another follow up event in Sept at MSR Houston. My question is so far the OEM Pads have performed wonderfully. I do switch pads out when not on the track for street driving (mainly for the dusting issues) and this isn't my DD.
That being said, is there a more track oriented pad that doesn't leave it's residue embedded on the wheels? I've read a few threads here that have found the dusting of track pads to embed and not come off. At some point I do plan on getting another set of wheels for track day use, but I'm not there yet and would like to no have to deal with scrubbing like mad after every track event for clean up. To be perfectly candid, I have not gotten any fade yet with the OEM Pads (touching 140 on the back straight so I believe def pushing a decent amount), so maybe they are the good option for now, but was wanting a little feedback that way may not have to re-buy as skills progress farther.
Thanks for any guidance!
