I have KFP Gold front and rear with new rotors and they SQUEAL really bad! On the track, they are great. If I had to do it all again, I would probably go with Hawk Blue as my friends car doesn't squeal anything like mine.
For occassional track use, I would recommend Hawk HP Plus.

I'm running the HP Plus and as I commented earlier, they do tend to be dusty, and they do like a little bit of heat for best use... but they are nowhere near as harsh on rotors when cold as Blues...
It's really the dust that makes them squeak on the street, but so far after a couple track days they have been great for that purpose.

Pagid sport or race compound pads are not made for the Girling single piston floating calipers.

You are offering to sell a set for $99, Im assuming thats a full set of front and rears, or is that Canadian dollars (retail pricing for a set of front "Pagid OEM's" street pads is under $64 USD)?

I hope they’re not the same pad! They charge more for them than the Textars. The material seems to be a different color as well on the Pagids.
PBR apparently makes ceramic pads for the N/A. I supposed those would be better suited for track driving.
