Ever heard of the cake and eat it too saying.  There are compromises for a
good pad.  They include higher dust and higher wear than a slagmaster.  The
question is what is the compromise for you.  For instance my 84 beater wears
metalmasters because it will never see a track and I dont want to have to
mess with it for a while.  I still have to deal with the poor cold stopping
but thats the breaks.   For my 4ktq they were not even close to what I
wanted for that car.   The R compound Porterfeilds might be a little dusty
for a street application but the stopping is phenomenal.  Ferrado makes a
good street/light track pad that sounds like a very good compromise.  There
are different compound Porterfields that are a little less aggressive.
