I've been lazy and haven't researched this but how do ceramic pads fare on track?
Depends on the compound and brand but most "upgrades" should increase the friction as well as operating temperature to reduce brake fade. Of course usually there is a linear relationship with performance and sound/dust. Some race compounds can squeal a lot and let off lots of dust.

Try cool carbons maybe. They are supposed to be very low dust, low noise, higher (but not the highest) friction/operating temperature. Supposed to be a street/track pad.
