Of course these will be harder on the rotors but the advice I got was a set of rotors would survive 1.5-2 sets of pads on a dual duty car. On a track only car, one set of pads to one set of rotors.
That sounds like the ticket. I was contemplating switching due to pad life but since I'm picking up a set of reds for the street maybe I'll try blue for next years lapping sessions. I really like the yellows and have no performance complaints about them so if blue lasts a bit longer that would be perfect.
