      Are you trying to be cool with throwing sparks? (Said that because you said you don’t care if you have to replace rotors frequently)
      Are you having brake problems /fade that you need a more addressive brake pad?
      What pad are you running now?
      That compound may not best for your type of track -style. They don’t work as well cold, or early in a race.
      I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.

              I always had the best luck running seasoned parts against virgin parts.

              Bed rotors with old pads. Break in new pads on used rotors. This for longer life of both.

                I ground my pads and rotors after every night of racing (where I surely heated them) to remove the glaze, doing this gives you the same brake week after week after week.
