My experience with KFP Gold pads has been bad.

They last 8-9 hours and worn to the metal under endurance race conditions.
Raybestos ST-43's last as long as 50 hours. Rotor friendly.

Vented rotors, no slots or drilling.

Bringing back the semi-dead...

The OP's rotors were fine as the cracks didn't connect the holes.

Add enough heat and any rotor will crack drilled, slotted or not. This is a 2 year old Zimmerman with about 30 track days running Porterfield R4 pads and brake ducts. Scary? No. The car slowed from an indicated 130 with no drama lap after lap. I certainly will be replacing these but it's a small price to pay for a helluva lot of fun!
