I have now the BB kit with RS15 Pads.
What a great improvement !!!!
A few months ago I had no brakes at all (zero pressure) after 6 laps at Zolder with standard discs with RS14 pads .

Yesterday it was 28° C and no problem at all with the BB kit from AP Racing
How hotter they are how later you can brake !!

For trackday use I can only advise it , its a really good investment !!!!

I tried the Pagid RS15's and removed them after one track day session. I found the initial bite fabulous but they were just too aggressive with my ABS off and very difficult to modulate when braking very hard as they locked too easily. In the damp or wet they are just lethal. I switched back to RS14's, which IMO offer a broadly similar braking experience although the initial braking is not nearly as good with no need to ease off the pedal under heavy braking.

...I have a set of Pagid 15's for sale going very cheap if anyone is interested!
