Not exactly what you're looking for, but I run Hawk DTC-50s on my PP1 car and they have been good, haven't had any weirdness with them. Good initial bite and feel. Wear after 8 track days is less than half pad thickness, so likely good for another 5-6 track days. The DTC-50 has a different heat profile than the 60, I believe it's working temp range is slightly higher than the 60.

Depends on what you like. I bought a set for one of my track cars, used them once and tossed them. The dust is corrosive and the rising torque curve means every corner starts with a different brake effort that depends on how much the pads cooled off since the last corner. A lot of people like them but I switched to Pagid and never went back.

I got a quote on a set of them from the dealer here in the GTA, $900 for fronts! For that price I can buy 3 sets of Hawks and a case of beer or two. Where do you get yours?
Pagid's tend to be pricey in any case. I keep my costs down a bit because I maintain a post box in northern Washington State. I get domestic US shipping costs (usually free) and then I import most of my parts myself, paying the sales taxes but no brokerage or other agency fees. I bought the last set from Track Day Solutions at a bit over $900 USD for a set of GT350 fronts and rears, but there are other vendors out there that have them, and the pricing does vary a bit.

Knsbrakes has a set of Pagid rs-29 f/r for just under $900 I don’t know how the differ from the rsl-29

I checked with Pagid tech support when the part number changed - RSL is the same compound as the RS with a 3-letter designation to keep the part numbering consistent with the rest of their expanding product line.
