I can't speak for the 6th gen application, but the HPS is hardly a track worthy pad. HP+ is the minimum I would go for a dual-purpose pad.

It looks like Axxis Ultimates have a pad that fits, but don't think its any better than HPS.

right, I know the HPS is not track worthy...tried it, doesn't work to well, but they don't make the HP+ for the 6th gen caliper...which sucks!

what track was this? I am using motul...and sometimes valvoline supersyn...the fluid is fine, but fade is still an issue although I haven't been to the track with my 2 piece rotors yet and brake cooling ducts...for AutoX they are great...but the track will require the HP+ I think...
