I'm currently running the Powerstop Z26 pads on my C7 are they are practically dust-free and silent, but they did give up some initial bite vs. the OEM pads. If I were to do any autocross or track use with the car I would definitely either go back to OEM or throw in a set of those Girodisc S/S pads when/if they ever release them for the Z51.

Truth be told, I'm now a bit tempted to try out Autozone's new Duralast GT brake pads since they supposedly have some pretty legit R&D testing with Team Penske to back them up. They're priced about the same as the Girodiscs I mentioned.
Awesome! I'll have to try those next, thanks for the recommendation.
