Default Seems like an unfair comparison . . . . HPS is more in line with the metal master

That being said, the metal master is a very dated formulation and I would personally go for the Axxis Ultimates of Deluxe plus over the MM.

That being said, if it were my car, I'd get HPS for all season use. Haven't heard many good things about HP+ on the track either.

Default I wouldn't use HP+ on the street

I used 'em for a track event - and they did really well (slow track and also 1st track experience). After ~1 week of street use, they were loud as fvck.

Default HP+ = deafening, but the grip is very nice.
