Now I have a 19 R DSG, and I've tracked it twice (Summit Point and VIR) with nothing more than new rotors, Ferodo brake pads and Motul 500 fluid. I never had any overheating issues with either the brakes or the oil, but both weekends were cooler weather.
I’d recommend DS2500’s. They are a bit noisy for everyday but the performance is worth it. Nice and predictable feel
I have personally bought Ferodo brake pads from AF1racing for my 2022 SR/S. Pads work great
Gyrodisc 2 piece rotors + Ferodo DS2500.
I have swapped between Ferodo DS2500 (street) and DS1.11 pads without issues. Just go slow to heat them up so you can get the transfer layer applied.
Zimmerman rotors and ferodo 2500ds pads. 5 months old and used in 4 hpde. Im upgrading to a more track duty pad (hawk dtc 70)
Wagner OEX or Bosch Quietcast
Both are ceramic brake pads that will last longer. Brake fade is experienced in all brakes used excessively but it takes a lot longer in ceramic pads. The only draw back is stopping distance is slightly increase when cold but when warm it's decreased. Bonus is they produce less dust & its very light in color so your wheels look cleaner.
I really really disliked the ebc yellow I tried. I like my ferodo ds2500 as a pad that’s streetable but tough, they do dust more then a true Street pad and make more noise.
I have Ferodo DS2500 pads on my 987 Cayman. They are a good pad for street/track duty and it seems they come recommended on the forums. Just remember a dual purpose pads are okay for street and track, but not great in either.
I run the Sebro slotted rotors with Ferodo DS3.12s on track, which are louder than a school bus on the street, so I swap back to OEM pads and rotors after each event.
