Car has done 8000km. Three track days, with my wife doing around 400km of laps. She is a relative track noobie. I have also done around 3x 20m sessions, I am an experienced racer, and driving hard. Out of the road driving another 1000km would be aggressive twisty driving.

The pads are holding up extremely well, much better than expected, worn less than a third. The wear is so good I am actually wondering if we get the oem performance pads in our cars here? People in the US seem be reporting much more pad wear. The brakes hold up really well on the track.

For comparison, the tyres are very worn, we will need to replace them before the pads the way things are going

If you were to put a dedicated set of track pads in, such as pagid RS29 which is available for these calipers, I am sure they would last extremely well.
