Hawk equivalent for Cobalt XR3?
Title says it all.
I have some contingency certs from Hawk (SCCA Pro Solo) that I want to redeem for some track pads for my track toy (K-swapped EF). I currently run the Cobalt XR3 and like them a lot. Rotor-friendly, good bite and modulation, reasonable lifetime. What's the closest thing from Hawk? DTC-60?

Re: Hawk equivalent for Cobalt XR3?
Andy-
I switched over from the Cobalt XR3's to the Hawk DTC-60's last year (200hp '92 hatchback, 2400lbs w/ driver, Integra brakes F&R) and thought they were similar in feel and resistence to heat fade. No complaints with a long wearing R-comp or high grip R-comp (I've tried them with the NT01, R888, and A6).
I did not like the Blues as they felt very 'numb' during braking and were tough to modulate since they didn't seem to have a middle ground, only "on or off". <--hope that made sense
