Unless you know more about my car than myself, I seem to recall my car went out with stock everything except pads and R-S3 tires my first time too. Even now I have what, a set of sway bar and coilover? That adds 7 points in NASA scale maybe? I guess that should be enough to make my car as fast as a GTR.
Overheating what. I can hit ice mode on my first outlap with the XP10. My XP8 wouldn't hit it until the later laps. There seems to be no consistence around it, making it so scary.

Only time we get ice mode down here in SoCal is when we knowingly run old fluid, beat pads, and go in too hot. You're likely overheating whatever pads you're using or the "surface" you're on has inherent traction challenges- what is the ambient temp? Do you have vented brakes? How thick are the pads? If these are sanctioned events I understand why you can't just disable the ABS but otherwise.. crappy pads are, in fact, an absurd solution as you stated.
