Ive run HP+ recently at road atlanta for an hpde with NASA. While they are loud i never had any issues with them on track. I was running in a stock brake e36m3 on slicks.
I think HP+ make good track pads for HDPE first timers. I had them on the front of my car when I first started taking it to the track. I liked the initial bite of them. That said, for someone with track day experience like yourself, you might find and exceed their limit fairly quickly.
Stoptech Rotors and SS Brakelines, Tyrolsport Caliper Guides and Hawk HPS pads.
The brakes don't inspire confidence. I replaced mine with a stoptech setup which is overkill but the feel, modulation and overall power take away one of the stock car's biggest weaknesses IMO
After the OEM's wear I'll upgrade to Stoptech pads.
I switched to Hawk HP Plus pads all around and I've been extremely happy with them
Also ordered Hawk HPS Brake Pads for all 4 corners as well as some needed new Rotors for the rear.
I have the Hawk Ceramic pads on one of my Porsche's and agree they are great pads, very good pedal feel, no squeal, and no dust.
Hawk HPS are decent, as long as you never see winter conditions I hate mine in the winter, as it does take a bit to heat them up (as I approach my intersections going down steep hills). The initial bite, when it is warmed up, isn't as grabby compared to stock also.
I was at the track this weekend and basically, even with the hawk blues, the brakes just don't provide the clamping I need.
