I have only tried Hawk pads well enough (easy, cheap and fast to get around here). The DTC-60, while its a race pad, can be used daily, it will be a bit harder on rotors, but rotors should still last you as much as pads (cheap blanks, nothing fancy). My DTC-60s can do 5-8 track days depending on the tracks Im doing before they get too thin for my liking, then I keep them as "spare" pads. I just did another 2 days on a "spare" set before they got to the metal backing plate, so to be safe I'd say 6-9 track days, averaging 2 hours of track each day, + a couple of months of daily.

I wouldnt recommend hybrid pads (DTC-30 or Street/Race for example), because while they might work, they last a lot less than race pads when used on track.
