But yeah, 3 days and the pads are tapered beyond usage now. That part is on me. I now rotate pads after track days. Still... THREE?!?

I'm late here on the post. But I HIGHLY recommend the DS1.11 pad for our cars. SUPER consistent but still as much brake as you can want. Having run Hawk pads in the past and hating the brakes on the camaro, I moved to the 1.11 pads and then fell in love again.

Which hawk pads were you running?
I'm moving back to DTC-60 after these DS1.11
Less than half the price!!

I've been using 3.12 on advise of some locals that they're like 1.11 just better all around. IDK as I've never tried the 1.11, but 3.12s are amazing. They require a lot less pedal force so the modulation and most importantly, the release, is smooth and easy to control. They take a few stops to warm up, but seem to warm up at about the same rate as the GY SC3s.

I'd estimate you'd get 6-8 days out of the fronts, more on the rears obviously... No issue with taper, but I swap out for the OEM pads as I use those for autox so they get rotated. Sticking with Ferodo means no need to re-bed.

I've used both the 3.12s and 1.11s and both are very very good. The 3.12s are for sure a step up from the 1.11s. I've alsohad a great experience with Cobalt pads. The XR1s are a bit in between the 3.12s and 1.11s and are much cheaper and last a bit longer.
