OEM brake pads not bad at track

after workin out my stock p5 for 3 days at 2 tracks (mission raceway, portland intl raceway), i'm giving the oem pads a vote of confidence. Altho i'm a novice i didn't feel any fade during any of the 15 min sessions (but could smell pad dust). i did have high temp brake fluid; dunno if that was a helping factor. ambient temp was in the high 50s i think, so not hot.

when i first got my p5 i took it to the road course all stock and it held up great! however, if you are seriously considering doing this more often, i would look into up graded rotors and high performance brake pads (somewhere between street & full race).
