Here's my .02....

Theory 1: Are the rotors real shiney? Like glazed over?  This is common when people run high temp pads on the street.  They are designed to work at a higher operating temp, when run at low temps over a period of time will polish the rotor and reduce the amount of friction needed.  Solution:  lower temp pads and new rotors.

Theory 2: see #1

Try Hawk brake pads, they have a street/track and a street/autox compound.
