isnt it a rule of thumb? harder last longer, doesnt grip as much as softer one? I guess it would apply to foam tires too! Also there is no such thing as "Better", all depends on tract condition, driver and set up!
and besides I know the person who asked this question very well, so I know if I listed the differences he will make the right judgement if it is better for him or not!

i remeber this guy was complaining too many BS on this thread but i think his last one is a true BS and was trying to push off someone from asking question here. there was no obvious answer to his question until the one i quoted from you above.
"it is good" is not an answer. "I love it" is not an answer. they are just end result but they never said anything about "How" and "what" to make the red better.

wow even longer lasting that the stock one?
i never thought that the clutch will wear out, mine still looks like new after 2 gallons, maybe my engine is too weak

Different hardness clutch shoe will allow you with different centex adjustments, for example if you are setting your centex to engage late for the punch then you probably need a softer material clutch shoe to grab fast and hard when contact(instead of slipping) since the clutch bell is spinning relatively fast! on the same token, if you set your centex engage early then you probably could use harder material clutch shoe.

yes you are right, if you set a soft pad engage too early or a harder pad engage late, you will lost power.

Red pads are the same material...
That is all I use, in both the mtx and mrx it will glaze up, I like this, then it stays the same for a while i have had mine in since jan and I kinda run alot...maybe average 3 to 4 times a week.
I also use the silver spring and drill out the lightened fly weight to 4mm.

Wow! You guys are too serious.
The guys simply were joking with their friends and some one don't like it already.
The guy simply pointed out this thread is mostly BS and some one don't like it already.
No matter what, I think this thread is OK becasue at least you guys are not kissing each other's a$$.
