Default XP12/10 For me.

Guy's I am slightly more aggressive on the breaks. With Break cooling ducting in place I am using the XP12 up front and the XP10 in the rear. I have no issues with lockup. Pad life is about 5-6 weekends at the track.

I wouldn't waste my money on it. Do the Essex parts front kit is what I would recommend as a minimum.

They will pay for themselves over time with less consumable cost. It's also a safety factor. It beats wadding your car up and loosing your life if you loose the brakes. Save up for them.

paying over time all depends on how long you plan on tracking and how often.
Myself time is clicking on how much longer I do it. I truly believe there is a switch in my head that will one day say enough is enough.
