Yeah the .01 is a full race pad so it can be dusty, but we do have low dust low noise pads as well.

I was worried about rear locking but it was great.

My recommendation would have been RS29, work very well hot or cold, last AGES, lowish dust and less likely to deposit than RS14.

Why would you think the RS29 would less likely to deposit material then the RS14?

RS14
Constant working temperature 400 – 700°C
Max temperature for short period only: 800°C

RS29 (endurance pad)
Constant working temperature: 400 – 700°C
Max temperature for short period only: 750°C

I have no experience with PFC and Carbon Lorraine. For me personally; I only buy pads from Pagid for track use. Ferodo sounds also ok with some types of pads, EBC is crap and PFC is something I would consider. Carbon Lorraine looks to be to agressive for wheels and paint and I don't want to risk damage on them. I have read some bad reviews about them with people who had paint damage with certain types of CL brake pads.

The RS-14 (front) + RS4-4 (rear) are now 2 days on my car. Last night I did the Pagid bedding in procedure and some positive things came to the surface; brake modulation is better, they brake a little harder and for the moment they are still completely silent (I really hope they stay this way). Next weekend will be the real test on the Nurburgring. Fingers crossed!

Not sure, probably the different compound of the pad, the temp range is very similar and doesn't really tell you anything. Just going off experience, a friend runs RS14s on the front of his car and occasionally gets judder and the discs get the usual pad deposits marks and I have also had them judder on the rear of my car. Whereas with RS29 I've not had any issues at all in general road or track.

Carbone Lorraine RC6 are not too bad, yes the paint can get a little rough like the cars not been waxed for ages, but they're a very good powerful pad.

Not really, I like the rs14 and rs29,

Rs14 last longer but. Think maybe a bit ore aggressive on discs
