If you get into DE events at track (not autoX), I'd recommend throwing some money at upgrading rotors / brake pads. I toasted mine over a 3 day weekend. The rotors are all grooved up and ruined. Brakes faded terribly when hot. I'll be putting the new PowerSlot cryo rotors on as soon as available, and I've already ordered the Hawk HP+ pads for the front. Will get rear as soon as avail.

I agree the stock pads get overheated if you're driving hard. A novice or intermediate should be fine, imo.
Hmm, what was the result of your grooved rotors? I ran my original rotors for 20k miles, of which probably 2000 of those miles were on track. That's 20 events with a set of R4 pads and a set of the stock pads, obviously. They looked like hell but still stopped the car.
Started to grind, but that noise is minor compared to my camber plate rattle/clunk, lol.
