I know of a few people running redstuffs, yellowstuffs and other race pads on various cars and haven't heard anything bad. Redstuffs are recommended for AWD and heavier cars though.
Similar to the Polo brake upgrade thread I'd say the lighter cars like an A3 have issues with being able to keeping a consistent spread of heat across the entire rotor and combined with a harder pad that needs some heat for better performance contributes to warping maybe?
Either way we'll see how we do on our respective setups and report back in a few thousand kms.
Cheers,
Trent
