I have used both EBC Red and Yellow for track use
Basically I would say that RedStuff is a trackable street pad and YellowStuff is a streetable track pad

Pads are so frickin easy to change, so why not have 2 sets, one for DD and one for play?

I found that RedStuff would start to fade a little after a lot of heavy track braking and YellowStuff kept asking for more. YMMV

I also started using Motul 600 as it has a higher temp range than ATE 200 which is a really good brake fluid. Motul 600 is about twice the cost of ATE 200, but it does come in 1/2 liter bottles rather than liters. I find when I do a full bleed, I use a little more than 1 liter, so I have a small bottle that I use between my annual flush for bleeding before track events
