Default Pads to use with spoon calipers

I picked up a set of spoon calipers and plan on getting some project mu rotors i want to know what pads others have used with this set up. I need these pads for street driving and some autocross with maybe a track day here and there. Will brakeman #3 pads or R4s' work with this setup? thanks.

How about the pads from Project Mu? HC Titan Kai would be good for street/track and the 777/999 very good for track use only (eats rotors tho)

If you do mostly auto-cross and street, I think what you need is a lower tempurature pad so you will not need to warm up the pads. Give Endless SS-Y a try. The SSY's are made for high initial braking with low working tempuratures and I think this will suit your needs. If you get other racing pads (HAWK or porterfeild), the braking will be better if you have enough time to warm up your brakes.
