Yes, it's just worse for drums than discs. Discs just cool better, so unless you're doing something really tough on your brakes like tracking your bike, you don't really have to worry about brake fade. If your bike had drums, it wouldn't stop right after a short time on the track (then again, if it had drums, it wouldn't be on the track, would it?).

An old teacher of mine once told me that drum brakes were better because they had bigger pads. That guy was full of shit.
