Default Sport Pkg brakes up to track use?

I'm considering a 370z with Sport Pkg as my weekend track car. I am an experienced track driver running in advanced run groups and will likely upgrade the suspension, and will definitely add an oil cooler and run dedicated track wheels/tires and pads.

My question is, are the Sport Pkg brakes up to the task? Are there any ducting kits available that properly route air to the inside of the wheel hub? In my experience ducting kits are the best way to keep the brakes cool...

Also, how easy is it to change pads? Do you have to remove the entire caliper or do you just pop a pin out and pry the pads out while the caliper is still bolted on?

Thanks in advance
John
