I would have thought racing pads like these were better than the road version..
Surely racing pads have to work when the discs are very hot, and they don't work so well when cold. That's why racers always take it a bit easier for the first couple of laps until the brakes are up to temperature.
Road cars on the other hand spend most of their time with the brakes stone cold, and need their brakes to work at optimum efficiency straight from cold. The downside is that they don't work as well when the discs are really hot, which is why you get brake fade when going down alpine passes.
TBH I can't think of anything worse than track pads on a road car.
