Is it my driving or is it the pads?

GR86 800 miles , Buttonwillow raceway, Session 7 of the weekend, stock pads are toast. Threw in a set of powerstop track day pads PST-1539, 4 sessions later they are toast. Had an extra set of the same pads, threw those on and went to streets of willow and more than half the pads are gone.


I am not particularly fast, just middle of the pack driver.


So either I don’t know how to brake, or both stock and power stop pads are crap or this car has no brake ventilation.


Note: Brake temps were really hot, I had no probe with me but you could not get your face near the wheels without squinting your eyes due to heat coming off the rotors.
