base brakes almost killed me

You are not cooking anything from ONE 70-0 stop, buy better tires if you want to stop quicker. Have you ever been to the track? Go find a track regular

Have you ever been to the track? Go find a track regular who is on the stock pads and stock fluid, they will laugh at you.

Also as a FYI. The Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes option, you know the $8K option on 911/Boxster, can't take the abuse of a full track day either. If you overheat them by doing straight laps/sessions, they will simply wear out and you will end up having to pay $5K for a new brake job. Some of the GT3 owners actually swap the PCCB out to get the brakes off the regular car since they are much cheaper and are more reliable at the track or they have to buy DEDICATED TRACK PADS like everyone else
