On my first track day, I noticed I was getting some significant glazing on the front rotors. I am running stock Brembo pads. I felt a little loss of braking at very slow speeds, at speed, the braking felt fine but towards the end of the day, I was getting some very slight vibration in high speed braking. After driving around on the street a feww days, he glaze is gone and no vibration.

Its a street car, I don't want to go to a super aggresive, loud, dusty pad, but what are the recommendations for a step up, something that doesn't glaze?
