I needed some and couldn't get any sent to me before a race so I got a set of the napa ceramic pads cost me $90 went through the break in process and they were no good no stopping power when I came in from the main rotors were glowing. I have had good luck with the hawk blacks they are worth the money. I run on a big 1/4 with a lot of bank and sweeping corners.

Hawk DTC-30 in rear and DTC-05 in the fronts best results used with new rotors!!

The blacks will kill the rotors. I use the DTC 30's.

All you guy's running LR brake floaters? Do you do anything different with pad setup running brake floater vs non brake floater?

Always ran Wilwood Polymatrix "C" or "D". No rotor wear but have great brakes.

Have used both blackhawk and wilwoods, both stop very well. Hawks are a little harder on the rotors.But that is a small price to pay for the stopping power.
