Kris,
- Did you bed in the pads per the instructions? I believe EBC does have instructions on how to heat cycle the pads.
- Re EBC in general - I had a set of EBC Reds and, while they worked great on the street, they did not stand up well to the heat generated on the track. They tended to carbonize and crumble. FYI - this was before I did the cooling upgrades on my brakes. In general, I was not impressed with their lasting ability and that was the last time I used EBC product. I have heard from others similar reports of the Reds not working well on the track.
- Warping of rotors is more likely related to your cooldown procedure than your pads. Are you sure they are warped? Check to see if you have pad compound on the rotor. Since you were using the Reds, I wouldn't be surprised that that's the problem vs actual warping.
- Re wheels still being warm after 20 minutes. Yup. In our past conversations, I advised heat was your enemy and you should really look to get some cooling on your brakes if you plan to do track work.
