My DSC doesn't like running lots of negative front camber (-3.5 degrees) with Toyo R888 tires regardless of what track I'm on (Pacific Raceways, Portland International Raceway, Spokane County Motorsports Park).
I've run several different high temperature brake pads (Hawk HT-10, Raybestos ST43, Porterfield R4 to name a few) over the years and keep coming back to Performance Friction pads. I'm currently running PF-01s front and rear. They are as rotor friendly as a track pad can be, have good initial bite when hot, and are reasonably linear under variable braking conditions. They're not cheap but I get at least thirty 30 minute sessions out of fronts and twice that out of the rears.
