Project Mu HC+ pads

Anyone have experience with these? Thinking of running these in my M4 for track use. I'd be swapping pads out at the track so I wouldn't be running them full time. The Pagids seem to be popular with you guys.

Getting ready to take the car out for a full time stint in a couple weeks, probably Buttonwillow with Speed District.

Ran these in my S2000 early on, not really a track pad IMO. Try the 'Club Racer' instead.

PS- I run Carbotech XP12/10 in my F80 and really happy with them.

You get what you pay for brake pads. I didn't have a good experience w/ Carbotech. I have a BBK and at one time it ate my front rotors alive. Not doing that again. I like the Endless ME20.

This is what the front pads look like after one day. Don't recommend using them for track use - burned through the entire pad. Soft pedal pretty quickly even with SRF. Disappointing.

Ditto on the Project Mu HC+ - had them on the BRZ and they just about made it through 2 trackdays. Dust was horrible. Switched to Hawk Plus - much much better. Now running BBK with Willwood RB20s (1 track day thus far) and they are brilliant.

Diff car, I know, but pads experience w Project Mu's is the same...
