UPDATE on Brake PADS
Well after some daily driving use along with track use I have come to the conclusion that HAWK DTC-60 pads on the REAR of my car actually work pretty well as a dual purpose pad. Well no doubt that are a little harder on the rear rotors than what a normal street pad is, they wear pretty well.
This kind of surprises me somewhat as DTC-70 Hawk pads on the FRONT of our cars are VERY hard on the rotors as I have posted and others.
On the FRONT of the car I am running Ferodo 2500 compound pads with my AP Racing calipers and I am extremely happy with the wear and performance of that compound for STREET driving.
I am using FERODO 3.12 pads for TRACK use on the AP Racing front calipers and while I am happy with their performance, they are wearing faster than I would have thought. I think they certainly will last longer than the DTC70's on the ZL1 calipers though since they start out being 25MM (1 inch) thick.
