As much as I like the Rotex pads, on aggressive days they do begin to fade.... So I'll go with the R-4 or R4-E Porterfield performance brake pads next time out and just get used to cleaning the wheels more often.....Actually - I still have the OEM pads with less then 1,000 miles of use.....
After the Homestead racing both of the SRT's have brake issues. Mine are worse then my daughter's. Both cars have rotex pads, but I think this is more brake fluid breakdown problem and/or air getting into the system. The brake pedal is mushie. You can pump them up , but they go down way too much.

Hopefully the fluid change and ss lines will correct the problem.
