Default M1144 or Ds2500 for my Focus RS

Simple enough question guys, running ds2500 atm an happy enough. But is there much difference between the two? I do a couple of track days a year and the car does get driven hard on the road (runs aprox 300bhp)

Cheers Paul.

I would say DS2500 are better and don't make as much smoke when overheated.A little more dull braking feel when cold though.

Mintex 1144. Much better pedal feel from cold & alot more progressive. Had them on a few cars now, also used DS2500 & they are fine but my money always buys the 1144's for a good all rounder!!
