Based on Bill Davies recommendation, I'm still on my first set of Ferodo's on my 1994 Aero. They are incredible on the street and have been used for 1 track day. It was a less demanding track than the one I posted above but they performed great.

The only thing I have against this setup is having to grind the backing plate. The first time I did this I did not grind off enough material. When I heated up the brakes they got bound up and stopped working until they cooled. I assume the thermal expansion caused them to bind in the caliper. It was a bit scary!!! I ground them down more and have not had any problems since.
