None of the other pictures looked like RS29s. What is everyone else using? Has anyone used Endless which are use by some of the Porsche track day attendees. Apparently they are very expensive but as the Porsche RS29s are twice the price of the CSL AP Racing ones then I am not quite sure how to take that.

Ps I may just bin them anyway....................
Tom Schirmer also uses the Endless pads in his cars, but I have not tried them to comment if they are worth the premium, as I have been satisfied with the performance of the Pagids . I normally change them when I can feel a performance drop (on track), which is normally when they have 3-5mm left.

Nordschleife, there's only two barriers to worry about - the ones on the left and the ones on the right .

Endless and be £2k for a set, good pads though, we used them on the 24 hour car last year, for our use it seems a lot when RS29 do the job though..

Thank you for the reaffirmation of my decision Shimmy. I will have to big you up even more next time I bump into Mr Stevenson.
