NO cos most standard pads will still suffer from outgassing, you should run a compisite pad (medium) or gold (medium/hard) for best results.
The compisite will give you a little better pad under heavy conditions without compromising rotor wear (but if you like to go hard still sufers from brake fade), while the gold is very good with virtually no brake fade but does chew in to your rotors a little bit. Trial and error personally, you have to get a pad that suits your driving. Hard compound pads (gold plus) are the full race pads you are talking about which have no brake fade but lots of rotor wear.
