Brake pads that last & TT600 camshafts

Have any of you track-going individuals tried different brake pads? I found that EBC HH's wear out after 3 sessions, so I'm looking for more of a race item. Does any manufacturer have such available? I've used EBC's GFA HH before and found them to be able to take quite a beating... (a lot more than the standard HH) but they're not available for the Speed Four

Also, I want racier camshafts. There must be some race items for the TT600, as I've seen some supersport race bikes around. Where can I get my hands on them?

Anyone? Weren't there a few different cam designs on standard TT's as well? What are the cams to use if supersport cams aren't available?

I don't remember the exact hot cam setup, but I believe it was a 2000 intake and 2002 exhaust. It may be the other way around, but they model years are correct. There should be some information back a few years ago. I am out of town on business, so I don't have the time to look it up, unfortunately. I know the information is floating around somewhere.

Brakes are one of those things- I got through brake pads pretty fast, too, but I don't know of anything better.

The brake bit I tihnk I have solved, I'll go test Ferodo XR pads tomorrow, I'll let you know if they're any better.

About the cams, I think I'll do a bit of searching on the forum

And Ferodo XR's are tons better than EBC HH's
