^lmao...he has driving experience the say...not mechanical. Anyway, I like the hawk pads I'm running now but they were noisy as shit for like the first 5k miles now they are quite. I like the green stuff brakes A LOT more....especially for track use. The only thing though the green stuffs eat up rotors fairly quick so they are not the best for daily driving. Also a good idea to go slotted with the green stuff brakes. LD is right about the cross drilled rotor being prone to cracks though, but it all depends on hard you are going to be on them and how well made they are.
