I run the RC5+ on an Essex Sprint Kit. A word of warning - it is not a good street/track hybrid combo! The sintered pads expand a lot when they heat up, so are made smaller to allow for this. The CP8350 caliper has no retaining clips so this means the pads rattle around a lot on the street. They are also quite noisy and difficult to modulate when braking lightly under 15mph (yes they are bedded). Also, with the harder compound I find it very difficult to heel-toe unless almost threshold braking. Not a big issue on the street, but it is good to keep the practice up.
On the track though, its a different story. These pads take a bashing and just keep asking for more. Awesome feel through the pedal with pedal pressure as opposed to travel controlling the amount of braking.
I now run Carbotech 1521's for the street - lovely pad, but I wouldn't track it.
