Hi there! I've been doing an extensive amount of research through searching the forums, but have not found a concrete answer to my specific question, so here goes!

I have a 2010 370Z Roadster with sport package, and I am preparing to go to a Friday at the Track day at Summit Point next month. My car has about 13k miles on it right now and is completely stock. For the day at the track, is it advisable to replace my brake pads on the ZR w/ sport package, or, should my stock pads hold out quite well?

Prior to the ZR, I had an 08 G37 S coupe, and I was told that I needed to replace the brake pads prior to my first track day in that car. While I only did one track day, I had replaced the pads (with Hawk Perf. HPS) and brake fluid. Since the two cars are very similar, I was curious to see what the community felt in terms of me upgrading the ZR's pads.

Thanks, as always, for the help!
