I can see the blues as being a decent dual duty pad, but for advanced track… I wouldn’t recommend it.

I did however get my PB with Ventus RS4 and EBC blues before they shit the bed
I once read the EBC bed-in instructions. I'd seen instructions like those before and have always stayed away from pads requiring an involved bed-in routine.

My experience with Hawks has always been the opposite: drop them in the calipers, warm them up for a couple of laps, and then they're good to run hard.
