If you still have stock pads, I believe your fad is from your pads. When the rotors heat up the pads are beyond their operating temperature range. The heat build up from one stop at that speed is more than the stock pads can take. Maybe look at Hawk HPS, Porterfield, etc., before going to larger rotors.
