brakes.. when i used axxis ultimates, it was about every other track day i'd have to replace the pads (front)
in stock rotors, i replaced them like 3-4 events (they cracked for me)
but then again, i've also cracked rotors clear through on a bbk

Can't believe you went through a set of ra1 in 3 days! I got a used set from SubyDude that have lasted me 3 track days already and I think still have another 3 or 4 days left...Man you tore that babysmurf up girl!!!!

The Ferodo DS2500's on my STi lasted 5 track days, although the first two days I wasn't really pushing the car since it was still on stock suspension. My Yoko A032R's currently have 3 track days on them and it looks like I'll get at least 5 or 6 more (they started out shaved to 3/32).
My rear Axxis Ultimate's last about 6 to 8 track days.
My front pads that I've used:
Pagid Orange: 6 track days + street
Axxis Ultimate: 3 track days + street
Brakeman (high street): 3 track days + street
Hawk HT14: 3 track days (and counting) + street
Just for reference I only have 26k miles on the car.
