Recommend you buy pads based on how you drive on the street. For tracking...

...I'd invest in a second set of aggressive pads due to the weight and horsepower of that car. Do not buy super aggressive pads for daily driving because you "may track it once or twice." You will not be happy on the street or on the track.

2pc DBA Rotors

I have pair of 2pc. slotted DBA rotors (black hats) with less than 300 miles available. They were removed when I went to an ECS BBK on my S6. PM me if you are interested.

For street pads I strongly endorse the Hawk HPs. Good bite, very low dust, no noise.
