I've had both so it was all that much harder to figure out what was going on.

stock pads and pad fade = total brake loss in about 4 applications.

I've never had the ice mode, even with the brembos. I think though, there is a big difference stopping from speeds in the 100s and even in the 60s with hot R-compounds than in the 40s-60s with street tires.

I'm pretty sure this is only an issue for autocross guys and not track guys.
