Most of the typical track pads we have used such as the PFC01, require a warm up, and are very hard on rotors.

With respect to noise, they actually make very little noise under hard track braking. But they can make some noise-squeek under very light braking, such as pulling into the paddock....or Starbucks.

Hope that helps. We run Carbotech pretty much exclusively on the GT-R and we are having some made for our 370z StopTech racing calipers.
