For AX, stock pads can be fine. you don't mention your AX experience though... Stock pads are nice because they don't require the heat that a dedicated "track pad" likes to be effective.

That said, I put in PF 97s on my Boxster at the beginning of last season for use at DE, AX and street use. I thought they were better than stock, even in a cold AAX environment, but then again, they were VERY expensive (About $500 to do the whole car) Stock pads are cheaper ;)

You might try some HAWK HPS pads. I know folks who feel they are better than a "stock" pad but priced fairly.

Enjoy your AX!
