Thanks for the input and advice. For my next DE in May, I think I'll give the GT3 brake ducts a try?

just take time to open up caliper and swap pads around after each event, to make them wear equally. or one pad will wear off much faster than other one.

You might want to try Pagid RS 421 "black"; dust / rotor wear / noise are all comparable to OEM, but performance is better, particularly if combined with braided lines and improved fluid. This is probably enough for the Walter Mitty in all of us.
