1. Green Stuff= high performance, low dust street, and perhaps an autocross or two.
2. Red Stuff= highest performance street and track, low dust.
3. Yellow Stuff= track only. need to be kept hot by constant track use or they don't bite and therefore are dangerous for street(it is said).
4. Blue Stuff=Relatively New Product, the opposite of Red Stuff, mainly track but also street. high dust. They(it is said) bite hot or cold. I personally have no experience with Blue Stuff and as such will await up coming reports from the MINI community.
Recently a simple question and answer survey was done here at MA as to MA MINIac's favorite brake pads. EBC Red Stuff won by a good margin.

EBC make excellent rotors and pads. I ran Red stuff on my Rally Swift with zero fade even on down hill tarmac stages. I have Yellow stuff on the MC with EBC grooved/dippled rotors. Like Jason says you need to warm the yellows up alittle but with my driving style they are always warm! I use yellows for the street with no issues.

:cornut: That's a good deal and some one will probably pick up on it soon. EBC's are popular in the MINI community. GOOD LUCK!

Where in Indiana? Would the shipping price come off if I picked them up [depends where you live in IN, though]?
