Fixed to avoid any confusion, Dann.

The OP's question was who would consider using Bendix 'SRT' pads if they were available?
I doubt he was considering using the common Bendix pads such as CT, Heavy Duty or Ultimates.

I didn't know Bendix made performance pads. When did they start making those?

From a dust and rim cleaning point of view:
As someone with gloss white rims I can honestly say that the Carbotech XP10 dust is so much easier to clean off than the Hawk HP+ dust.

Ive fitted project mu club racer pads front and rear (on slotted rotors). Still reasonably new and I've not yet tested on a track, but so far;
Squeel like a jail house stooge on light stop start braking, but getting quieter as they are wearing in more, not a peep though on heavy braking;
Thrown off a bit of dust, but easy to wash off;
A couple of hard braking "tests" have seen a few of the hairs on the back of my head poke out my eyeballs, (there may also be a passenger forehead impression on the left of the dashboard too!!) so safe to say they pull the car up really, really well- no info regarding fade yet. I'll update when a clearer picture emerges.

Although the response has nothing to do with bendix inquiry, if you can make the Project Mu Club racer pad fade you are doing something wrong. (or very right)

Gone through multiple sets of them with heavy track use and they never faded and would bite nice and hard.

Sorry, I do tend to go off topic but I try to keep it in context... any more info on these pads for my notes are greatly appreciated...... 1st thing though though, does the squeal dissipate after a bit more wearin (for daily street) Thanks in advance Tim_cyc03. :DIY:
