A good friend is very (extremely) quick at autocross, but we would rib him for his track times at Portland International Raceway. He used HP+ with no issues. I tried HP+ once in my car at PIR, overheated them on the third lap. With even a stock power miata you should be able to overdrive HP+ pads unless the track is super easy on brakes.
Completely agree! Definitely most of my problems come from just not pushing braking zones enough. My local track is MSR Cresson so it isn't super hard on brakes compared to a lot of other tracks. I plan on running G-Loc pads before my next event and focusing on my braking!
