i never used the DS2500. But im using the Endless racing pads, now this is a second year.
I do left foot breaking so they should be wared out already. But they dont. The rotors are looking good too. Stopping power is awesome. Dust is for racing pas , i would say acceptable.
Thats all i can say after couple of thousand miles. And as i said i have no comparison vs the ds 2500.
All i can say the endless is leaves up for his name for me.

I can understand what you're saying, but your right foot isn't on the throttle 100%, and you have to get off the gas to downshift...am I right? So exactly how much of both feet do you really have in? Also, seeing that you rally, how much are you really driving that way on tarmac? Rally on dirt isn't as tough on brakes as a track event..all my assumption of course!

You dont get off from the throttle that is the point... If you have to down shift before turn, you down shift before the turn, so from there you go with LFB control the car in and out of turn. Also that is how you keep the boost up. Anyway its off topic. if you wanna more, you can go the motor sport section in this forum and open a topic about this.

about not being harsh with the brakes on gravel... i have a picture at the timing control, when the pads are actually on fire.. LOl

Rob, the DS2500 is a good street pad, I would not compare it to a true racing pad. I know goofygrin was running them and even the 3500's on track events and he did not have good things to say about them for how much he was pushing the car. He moved on the Raybestos race pads and said they were better. But for the average spirited DD evo owner with occasional Auto X etc, the 2500 is a good pad for sure.
