There are a lot of very good pad materials out there, PFC01s at the top - but sadly I have found very little available for the E9XM3.

Two club racing compounds available (MOT over 1400)
Pagid RS19 (F/R)
Hawk HT10 (F)

One "cross-over" compound (mot around 1100)
Ferodo DS2500 (F/R)

I wish there were more. Please let me know if you find anything.

I would strongly advise against the HP+ at high speeds. They have more torque than your run of the mill OE pad, but their MOT is just under 900 degrees, and at the MOT the friction goes away abruptly - not what you want for safety on a track.
