First - I track mine for the fun of it and thrill- (NASA HPDE) and do NOT consider what I do as racing and do not plan on brining it to that level. So in my case when I did Limerock CN (4- 20 min sesions) with Stock Sport Brakes they were OK - nothing scary or no panic- my best lap was about 1:10 typical 1:15, top speed front straight ~ 130-35. Brakes worked consistent and never felt any significant fade- I was comfortable with the brakes but I did get some juddering under heavy brake on the front straight. I have pulled all pads and the wear was probably ~ 20-25% so still had a good 75% left. So all in all for "sport" track use it was acceptable and did feel safe and predictable- but yes all got very hot.
As I plan on a few more events- I figured what the heck might as well do some modest upgrades- SS Lines, Hawk HP+, Super Blue Fluid- so will compare to stock when I do Monticello in June- as I am not hard core racing this set up should be just fine.
