Default Pagid 4-4 vs Hawk HT-10 vs Porterfield R4

I am struggling to choose from the above 3 pads for track days. I had ran Porterfield R4s before but they are not up to the task for track days.

can anyone tell me their experiences with the above pads? what are some of the pros and cons for these 3?
Have anyone used HT-10 at all? it seems like it has limited coverage over here on the forum.

Thanks!

Gary

Hey Gary- i've used porterfield's R4 @ track days before on my stock maxima brakes... they're decent for fade, but they dust like a ****. my only other expereience is with Pagid Oranges.. i dontk now how they compare to the 4-4s. but damn. they were sweet in my Stoptech ST40 calipers. (aka 14" bbk)

are you on stock brakes? or oem brembos?

Hey Cheston, I read your post earlier about the Oranges, that's when I went deeper to do more research thus this post. I have the brembo brakes, I think the 4-4 is actually the oranges. Does Pagid offers the oranges for the rear brembo? they didn't list the oranges for the rear pads...
