Higher temperature pads and new brake fluid are musts. Look for a rotor friendly pad if possible. I'm using Carbotech XP10 and they are super at the track, squeal like a pig on the street, dust like crazy but don't eat the rotors. I'm told Ferodo DS2500 are about the best for dual purpose. As you get better you'll need brake ducts for additional cooling. I'm reaching the point that I need them even with my Stoptech BBK. Everyone should go to one of these events at least once. The instructors always think safety first and are attentive to how your car is behaving. Most can drive almost anything and are familiar with FWD, RWD, AWD, automatic, manuel, paddles, high power, low power, understeering, oversteering, etc. Just do it!
