My new-to-me 2025 DH w/o HP but with three pedals, is shortly going to be on its way to me. It's a base car, no options, no HP, and it will be occasionally tracked at VIR, maybe Summit Point, perhaps CMP (I'm in RTP, NC). I'm a slow old fart, so I generally don't bother to go more than 125 on the straights. Will the OE pads be adequate for a moderately fast driver, or should I look at upgrading the pads? I've used the Hawk DTC-60 in past cars (S550 and Zupra) and they're a nice compromise that have held up well on the track. But if I don't need to spend the money, I won't.

I will, of course, always have fresh brake fluid and decent tires.

Thoughts?
