Anybody Using Carbotech Brake Pads for Track?

Like the title says,wondering if any experiance with these pads
In Corvette forums some guys use them
I see various compounds are available
Really interested if anyone is using another brand outside of OEM

I think various compounds are available in the shape to fit the calipers but only one compound is carbon rotor friendly. Be careful what ones you choose. I was thinking about trying them but decided to stick with OEM as they work well.

I heard there are Pagid pads that are more track specific for the carbon rotors. They are expensive at $750 for front pads. Ferrari guys use them and think they are great.

Spoke to Pagid before changing pads front and rear.
They're supposed to be easier on the rotors bur wear out more quickly.
Maybe it will all iron out expense wise but would like more input
