I just did a second trackday with Club racers. For anyone considering the HC800+ for track, don't bother, go straight for club racers.

With the HC800+ I managed to overheat the pads on stock power and stock tires in 20 minutes. They lasted 2 track days (approx 350 track miles)

The last track day was with 250WHP (cosworth SC) and Ohlins installed and I couldn't get fade with the Club Racers even after 30minutes of hammering it.

Also they are way less dusty and more consistence (probably because they weren't falling apart)

Down side is that they ate about 0.35mm of the disc, so you'd get about 5-6 trackdays out of the disc with these pads.

Way ahead of you Got an AP racing front kit being refurbished and the RR racing sport rear kit to fit very soon (hopefully before Snetterton in April).

But for someone who doesn't regularly track the car, the clubracers held up pretty well.

I'm also on HC800+ but I've been having plenty of life with these.

On a related side note:

I've noticed the condition of my pads and rotors is maintained a little better by staying within the same pad family. I've tried to run either
HC+800 for DD/street/AutoX usage and CRs for the track in the PMu family
or
Ax6 for DD/Street/AutoX and XP10/12 for the track in the CarboTech family.
I'm currently using the CT pads.

Bedding the pads is much easier which I've found contributes to pad/rotor life... unless you are just really into properly bedding pads (which I'm not) when switching back and forth between compound families.
