Never any issues with mine at the track (NHMS, WGI, Mosport, Mont Tremblant, Lime Rock). I've gotten by with OEM AP1 pads in a pinch (not ideal). For a while I used CarboTech XP8s, but eventually found that I had zero issues with lower-temp Hawk HP+. Fresh off-the-shelf DOT4 has always worked well for me too.
Totally bone stock '01.

Of course different drivers can place very different demands on the brakes, even while turning similar lap times, so that's a huge variable right there...
