slightly related when using the Ferodo DS2500 as both a street and light track pad: on the street, mine were incredibly noisy and grabby on my M3. I did not get to track them though. I tried a bedding procedure, but did not get to add grease to the backing plate interface with the caliper (I think that was a proposed fix, never got around to it).

When I went back to stock pads, I had a small panic moment the first time I went for the brakes because my brain was so used to hearing the squeal, it assumed no squeal = no brakes
