Default brake pad question......

i have NO brake pad material remaining in the rear and im looking for a replacement.

id like something with a little more stopping power/fade resistance. i can deal with a bit of squeaking, and brake dust is a non-issue with me. looking for something that can handle occasional track use and not light on fire.

any suggestions?

Default I just ran Hawk HP+s Saturday and Sunday at Sebring.

Stopping power is awesome. Zero fade. They're VERY noisy when cold, but heat them up and its all good. I think I paid $108 shipped for the fronts from Tirerack. And, I wouldn't do just your backs. Either do all four or just your fronts. To much grip in the rear is bad.
