A few laps on a sticky tire with a proper pad setup will make you realize the difference between a street pad and a track pad as the poster originally requested. Stoptech originally used Axxis ultimate pads with their kits but started including these when they were purchased by Centric.
Direzza Star Specs and RS-3's. I agree with all you're saying. I was just offering an option to the OP - these pads are very good on rotors. The Carbotech XP8's I ran on my 330 in my view performed to the same levels of the Stoptech.
