I've used Power Stops on personal vehicles without issue.
I've been using Bendix pads for 2 decades and they always last a long ass time
I have their Z23 brake pads and they're solid.
If you think you're going to do some more events, or are adamant that you'd feel more confident with a track type pad, then a good budget track option might be the Powerstop Track Day Spec. Make sure to get the "spec" (PSA-) and not the regular Track Day pads (PST-). I've run these for about 6 events and looks like I can squeeze out one more.
You're safe to run them on the street for the handful of days for the swap around the event, they do have less cold bite, but they still stop you. I mostly don't like them for the street because the dust is pretty intense. A little dusty and noisy, no big deal, but the dust can be very hard to get off your wheels if the dust gets wet later...not unlike concrete.
But they're a decent, budget friendly, track pad. They're something like $100-110 for front set and $90-100 for rear set.
I use powerstops. Think they are a good brand. Haven’t let me down.
Power Stop stuff is amazing, I am super impressed with their pads material. Zero brake dust and stop on a dime.
I threw a set of these on my SRT a couple years ago and they’ve been great. Easy install, they’re quiet, grippy when you need it, and minimal to no brake dust.
I have a challanger with 6 piston brembos and I replaced the stock pads with power stop immediately. They are a lot less aggressive and less Dusty. In my opinion, Chrysler had no buiness putting aggressive track pads on these vehicles.
Initially had a "tinny" sound PLUS a rubbing sound on the fronts that coincides with the wheel rotation PLUS a bit of squeel when stopping when cold. The sounds are still therre. It's very noticeable at low speeds (below 10MPH). Brake dust is very minimal.
The Power Stop pads do have the end clips but they are moving in the calipers a little. After following the break in instructions that include hard braking the metal sound pad on the outside of the pad slid up and wrecked it somewhat.
