Bob,
You might want to check with your brake caliper Manufacture and see if they have available a different "compound" brake pad material. There is usually different materials depending on the weight, and speed of the vehicle and temperatures your rotors see. Since its the starting line, you might need an aggressive material because the temps won't be very high. There is a company named EBC that make some really good quality pads for various performance uses. I would still check with your caliper Mfg. and explain your situation and see what they suggest. If you aren't satisfied after that then I would consult with someone like EBC and see if they can't help you. You might even need a "standard pad " for the fronts - so you can hold the car in the water with the line lock and an " aggressive " pad for the rears, to hold the car at an elevated RPM against the converter. I hope this helps, have a Good Day!
