I don't think that rubbery substance is brake pad. When pads melt, they smear onto your rotor and form marbling on the metal surface. Pads don't sling off like that; it's not possible (they aren't made of anything that would be rubbery)


If I had to guess, there are a few possible culprits:
  1. You picked up some rubber marbles from your own wheels, other cars, or the track
  2. Brake pad grease
  3. Caliper pin grease
