I don't race but attend 4 to 5 DE's per season. For the track I use Hawk HP Plus. They are dusty but don't fade during a session (25 to 30 minutes). If driven for longer periods and they would start to fade.
I'm usually to lazy to change out my track pads for street pads during the season unless there is an extended break between events. The HP Plus pads are very loud (as evidenced by a toll taker covering her ears as I approached to pay a toll) so during long breaks and winter driving I move to Hawk HPS. Nice and quiet and good braking for the street.
As many folks mentioned previously, it really comes down to what activities you need the for (racing, autox, street and DE's), cost and your braking habits to make a decision pads. At that point it is trial and error until you find one you are comfortable with. Many, many choices. Have fun.
