which hawk pads did you use?

the mustang runs hawk blue on the track, and i haven't had problems with
brake dust (or any other crud) sticking to my wheels afterwards.  the
race wheels look like new because i've always been in the habit of cleaning
them off with wheelbrite after the track.  i think the wheelbrite has
some wax in it, so that might have helped.
