There are two messages here for those that track mostly, learn to drive the car with the VDC turned off to avoid the helpers from helping you not to crash by cutting power and adding brake bias to the rear and learn how to break properly. We all use our brakes differently and so brake ware will very because of that. If you do threshold braking you will get burnt breake material as you call it on the edges of your brakes regardless of material. The OP would have same results with different pads, in fact he may put himself in real bad situation if he was running race pads as they may just lock up or cause the car to spin out as mentioned before due their aggressive nature.
