Sparks anyone?
My brakes:
After knowing this is happening, I am going to a slightly less agressive pad for the street. Any guesses on what pads are doing this?

uhm, looks like something is wrong there, even on some super expensive carbon metallic pads, there is no sparks. Are you sure they are installed the correct way?
Looks like metal to metal contact to me

Sorry for taking so long to get back to all of you, forgot about this thread. They are just Carbotech Panther Plus pads.
The sparks are my rotor being eaten away, though its not TOO horrible of wear:
Pads show pretty much no wear:
