I would caution you to use a track pad on non-track drives. When I did the investigation you did a while ago, I was warned over and over again by each mfg., race track pads will require temperature and usage to grip; God forbid you have racing pads on and have to panic stop a few miles into your drive.

It seems like you are trying to use race pads for casual driving at times, where I used high-performance driving pads (not strict racing pads) for racing. Certainly one could argue that my braking has suffered when racing, but certainly is not dangerous when driving.

Just my 2 cents.
