Race Brake Pads Raybesto vs Per Frict

So I am in the market for track only pads to put in my evo 9, these will be accompanyed by dba 2 piece slotted rotors but I am undecided between these two brands:

Raybesto track pads from Girodisk
and
Performance Friction PF 01 Race Compounds Brake Pads

If you have used these pads please chime in.

^^ +1, what tires you are running will dertemine what pads you should run. Running aggressive race pads on street tires is a waste of money, the pads will only work up to the potential of the tires.

I like the Raybestos and Girodisc is local for us in WA, so it's nice to support them! It's about time for me to get another set of ST43's for the front of my car.

I disagree...

OP, I had a lot of luck with Raybestos ST43's and also CL RC-8 pads.
