Default brake pads 4 spot brembo

What pads would you recommend for trackwork car is fpv ute with 4 spot brembos all round. Car used for tarmac rallies and track days dont mind warming brakes before use (can use original pads for streetwork) type of pad and price please.

As a starting point the Ferodo DS2500 pads would be an entry level pad and then the SBS pads are next up from there for more competition use.We can supply various brands but i will list prices for these two applications for now.What have you been using and how have you found them ?
Ferodo DS2500 $644 complete
SBS Carbon Ceramic $792 complete

Factory spec pads there ok but you can on a track get them a little HOT biggest scare is pad knock off got to remember to give them a dab before trying to stop on a dime (nothing like a long peddal to wake you up). still have original rotors am very careful about doing a cool down lap b4 stopping to prevent warping. Prices are for both sets front & rear brembos?

Yes for both front and rear sets and maybe get some braided lines and better fluid happening if you haven't already done it.
I have 1 set only of front brembo factory brake pads and factory crossdrilled rotors for a good price if you know anyone interested.
