I'm kind of blown away you found the stock pads good, and better than DTC60's. I guess I'll keep mine on for my first track day next month as a baseline. I'm envious of you guys having year-round track seasons!
I wouldn't say the OE pads were better, but really good. If I was doing longer sessions or double stinting the car (like I was @ Barber) I'd definitely want the DTC 60's. Plus the OE pads lower friction meant the brakes had a slightly longer stroke but offered better feel. Looking at the braking trace on PDR at NCM vs Barber... you can see I'm using more pedal stroke at NCM on the OE pads.
