Rating 4.0

If you think you're going to do some more events, or are adamant that you'd feel more confident with a track type pad, then a good budget track option might be the Powerstop Track Day Spec. Make sure to get the "spec" (PSA-) and not the regular Track Day pads (PST-). I've run these for about 6 events and looks like I can squeeze out one more.

You're safe to run them on the street for the handful of days for the swap around the event, they do have less cold bite, but they still stop you. I mostly don't like them for the street because the dust is pretty intense. A little dusty and noisy, no big deal, but the dust can be very hard to get off your wheels if the dust gets wet later...not unlike concrete.

But they're a decent, budget friendly, track pad. They're something like $100-110 for front set and $90-100 for rear set.

Pros: good budget option, decent longevity
Cons: less cold bite, intense dust
Vehicle: Toyota

EBC Brake pads

I've been using EBC pads for a while now with a couple brands in between and EBC just seems to have some of the best bang-for-buck.

My use-case is daily driving and spirited weekend drives, so I can't comment on more aggressive or track use. I know some folks really don't like them for serious track cars so be mindful of that.

Pros: best bang-for-buck, good for daily/spirited
Cons: not for serious track use

EBC Brake pads

I've been using these on my '19 PP MT and have noticed a pretty good difference! However, I paired them with the EBC Redstuff pads.

Pros: pretty good difference

The rotors are amazing, I've been running them for 4 years now but those pads are absolute trash especially in the rain.

Pros: rotors are amazing
Cons: pads are trash

The EBC product is self bedding, extremely low dust and have excellent modulation. I've run several sets.

Pros: self bedding, extremely low dust, excellent modulation

EBC Brake pads

I think ebc blue are pretty good for what you need. Only downsides are that they are dusting a lot and they're going to last only several track day sessions.

Pros: pretty good
Cons: lots of dust, short life

I've used Yellow Stuff about 4 times on 4 different cars. I drive very aggressively on the street during midnight haulin ass events. First off, even on the street I glazed them on all 4 cars. The one car I fried them in one night, and they cooked my rotors too.

Cons: glazed, fried, cooked rotors
