Brake smell

OK so fo ********************s and giggles I pulled a 0-130-0 in my S the other day (on a private airstrip). What surprised me was the smell coming off the brakes after just one high speed stop. I thought they were going to start smoking. This does not seem normal for a high performance pad. I have no idea if the pads are stock, I personally have 18,000 miles of spirited street driving on them.

I've a set of cquence Rotors ready to install and I'm shopping pads at the moment. Do any of you find EBC red stuff to be sub-optimal on the street? I want great brakes, but I don't want to have to ensure they're hot in order to work.
