Default Which Pads are better for street/ light autocrossing?

Are the EBC Green stuff pads better, or are the Hawk pads better? Tell me your experiences with both. Thanks.

I haven't used either but most people on this board will tell you to say away from the EBC Greens.

You might wanna get 2 sets of pads, one set of HPS and one set of HP+. The HPS are nice, but are more of a street pad and I think you'll eat them up or they won't be enough for the track.

I WOULD, and I repeat, NEVER EVER use EBC Greenstuff again. I had it in 2 different cars and It warps rotors!!! I had it with my stock brake system on my Impreza and after 5 autox the rotors were already warpped, but at the time I thought it was just my driving. Then I upgraded to Sti 4 pot brakes and after 1 canyon run the rotors were warpped. I then took out the green stuff and put some stock pads in after i resurfaced the rotors and had absolutlely zero warppage for over 15 autoxes and 4 canyon runs!! EBC sux cooookkk.
