Brake pad grease carbonization with track use

JB1

I decided to leave the shims in place for the trackday I did in October. I used the Permatex grease as mentioned by Chris and it did didn't carbonize as the stock grease that was on there before, it only dried out a bit.. Track was Road America and I can assure the brakes did get hot!

I understand the shims might add a little sponginess to the pedal feel, but as I am not a pro racer, that didn't bother me too much. Reason I left the shims in place is I thought it might help to keep the heat away from the pistons a little better. Is this a completely bogus thought or might it help a little?
