Applying slight braking makes that constant noise go away, with more brake force making the pads squeal and then even heavier brake force makes the pads almost quite again.
My thinking is that brake pads always very lightly touch the rotors. Street pads are silent but some track pads generate noise. I just swap the pads as close to the track day and then as soon as I can after and live with the noise while driving to/from the track.
What brakes and pads are your friends running?

Thanks! That sounds exactly like what Ive been experiencing. Same with applying slight brake pressure making the noise stop momentarily. Then with more force it goes into normal track pad braking squeal.
I guess it must just be a gloc thing? My friends who ive talked to about it are running CSG pads with either oem sliding calipers or BBK's. I hadn't wanted to shell out the $$$ for the csg pads in the past, but maybe I'll try a set. They do last way longer than glocs so the cost per track day seems to pretty much even out.
