I'm on third set of Ceramic Pads on Gen2 (Using Pagid RSC1's now rather than Audi). I track the car and they only seem to last 2,500 miles or so. Rotors please heed earlier advice as sensors don't always go in time to prevent rotor scoring. And, note that when the pads get down to less than 50% the heat dissipation is worse meaning higher wear and tear on the rotors. I expect with regular track use on a high brake wear track (like COTA which is my home track) the rotors are sure to go at some point way less than 100k miles.
