Hawk HP+ pads are made for the Cooper or Cooper S that gets driven to
and on the track. The HP+ offers increased friction over the HPS, at
the price of a little more noise (squealing) and more dust. Brake squeal
is not uncommon in the HP+ due to the higher temperatures required for
their peak friction, but once warmed up, this higher operating
temperature will consistently allow your Cooper to brake more quickly,
with minimal fade. These pads are excellent for the occasional
HPDE/track day or for the very competitive autocross Cooper. If your
Mini will see more frequent track use, or competition-only applications,
consider the Hawk Blue 9012 race compound pads.
