As they are on the rear, I don't really have enough opinion to post in the brake pad thread about this, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to let people know that I got 16 track days and 9500 miles out of Ferrodo DS2500 pads on my rear brakes. This is without pedal dance or anything like that. One pad was worn past the wear grove, the other three still have some of the grove visible (not sure why only one pad). Dust boots were still pretty intact (only noticed a small amount of crustiness on one of them) so I don't think I really cooked the rears too much at any point.
