That's very likely true, but for what it's worth, everyone who runs out of the same shop as I do has Pagid blacks all around...that's about 8 SPBs ranging from DFL to podium finishers. I've run yellows, and I've run PFCs and I really can't tell a difference, though to be fair I've never tested them back-to-back on the same day. Blacks are the cheapest, so that's the answer for me. I mash the pedal, turn, and go

I am, however, considering the PFCs as I've been mowing through a set of fronts every weekend (test day plus 3-day race event) with the Pagid blacks. I run them basically down the the backing plate, but I wonder if PFC's wouldn't get me just a little more life.

The Yellow RS29's last longer for me than the blacks in the front, which is primarily why I run them. They have a little better feel to me as well.

Which Raybestos and Hawk pads are no squeal for the street.....I have got to change all four wheels. They will be going on mid to late late life rotors.
