I have five days on mine and I have maybe 1/4 to 1/3 left on the front (I have ducts too) and the rears still have some of the taper left in them so I'd say 3/4. I remember to turn the TCS off most of the time but I'm not boosted either.
I've been looking at going to the Cobalt pads to see if I can get rid of the late session pad fade I still get with the EBCs. The XR 1s seem to have a very wide (advertised) operating range, 100 - 1600 degF, which would allow me to still run one set of pads for occasional street use and on the track.

Thank for the response. I usually remember to turn traction control off but sometimes forget so that might have contributed to the high wear rate. In future I'll try to do a better job of remembering.
My front are probably about the same as yours after about 4 sessions.
This morning I ordered HP+ for the back and a spare set of HP+ for the front. Meanwhile I'm taking public transit until the rear pads are here and replaced
