I have really nice pads for the track, I think they're carbotech, but I've never used them.

I'll be honest, I probably won't see that much difference (for the one or two times a year the car sees a road course). I could upgrade to z51 rotors which are about an inch wider diameter but use the same calipers, just a different bracket. However, I found a sweet deal on a complete z06 brake setup with just a couple thousand miles on them, and it's basically the same cost as buying new z51 rotors and brackets. So I think I'm going with the 6 piston sweet looking approach, ricer style.

The come stock red, so maybe I'll just leave them that way, and if I don't like it, I can paint them next winter.
