Portfield R4S pads are street pads and will start to fade if used on the track. If you have stock fluid or something similiar that will contribute to the fade. Flush the system with good high performance brake fluid such as Motul or ATE Super Blue. And then change your pads for track days. Its really not that hard to swap them out.
