I'm thinking it could be the pad compound you're using. I've never run Hawks before but I do know they are pretty harsh on rotors so their bite must be pretty substantial.

That said I run Endless MX72+ and don't think I've ever encountered ice mode. I've had a couple lock up scenarios, but nothing abnormal for a track day.

Not sure what your braking technique is like but an agressive pad + an agressive driver may be the culprit. It's possible you may not need a pad with as much bite as your Hawks. Braking late isn't always the fastest way around the track
