The HP+ do not need any heat to work. They bite right away. I used them all year for autocross and daily driving (once in awhile swapping out for the HPS). You can definitely lock up the brakes though if you are not careful.
People mentioned that they will wear out your brake rotors quicker but I've had my rotors for two years now (last pair of pads were AEM/Nissin).
Oh yeah I had AEMs last year and won 1st place in my region and various other regions. Good pad, less dust, but definitely not like the HP+s I have now.

The funny thing is once you use the HP+ you never go back to HPS
Oh and make sure you bed in your pads correctly. Just follow the directions that come with the pads.
