I would go withe the EBC red stuff brakes for both street and track.
I wouldn't. I've used the Yellow's (higher temp range than the reds) for the track, and they work well for me, but those that seriously race (i.e., not me) that have tried them all say there are better Viper pads than EBC for the track - Porterfields, Brakeman, etc.

And, if you aren't going to the track, you don't want to use Yellow's or Red's on the street, as they don't get grippy until very high temps, which you don't see on the street.

HOWEVER, one friend has used the Red's on his '94 (Gen I) rear brakes in order to try to get the brake balance better sorted out. He says this has improved his braking in reducing rear-wheel lockup.
