Mintex discs and pads opinions

Seeing as the 106 is purely a track car, why not look for some track pads like EBC's yellow stuff? With some EBC or Brembo discs.

I had Yellows on my 205, which stood up to 4 day weekender at the 'Ring. Not much meat left afterwards though, but that's what you get  chasing sub 9min laps. Wouldn't recommend for road use as they're next-to-no-good from cold. Good for the price IMO, back then anyway. 

The 1144s I had on before the Yellows, gave up by the time I got to Wehrseifen (about a 1/3rd round). Plus, they make you car sound like a bus and cover your wheels in dust.
