I agree that EBC Yellow are not the ultimate track pad, but they do preform fairly well. Much depends on the track and your driving.

Maytag is correct, you will cook almost any pads before boiling 600, unless its old and has a lot of moisture in it. I used 600 for a couple of years tracking and never had any issues. I would flush each year and bleed before every track weekend. 660 is good for more than just 1 weekend, at least 2 or 3.

I did eventually get the vibration Racer Boy mentioned with Yellows, but it was after about 20 sessions at a faster track. I did finally switch to Hawk DTC-60 and loved them.

On brake lines, IIRC, Porsche factory ones are braided under the rubber. Unless you have really old or damaged brake lines, you should not be having a problem
