Change over the brake fluid to Rbf660 for the track. Does that sound about right, any pointers.

dpevans Danny at G-Loc Brakes will custom make you a set of pads for the front and rear single piston pads, great customer service.
I would not trust our stock pads on track if you are confident in brake zones.
First time out at Carolina Motorsports Park with G-Loc R10 F and R8 R and Castrol SRF with no factory brake ducting I got the fluid hot and a soft peddle but managed the event okay. After the event I purchased the factory brake duct kit with the small backing plate. I ended up going with the four piston fronts myself for the extra reassurance.
I have a set of G-Loc R12 front single piston pads for sale for $100 that have been used one weekend at NCM if you want to get a feel for track pads. There is a bigger difference going from stock pads to R12 than R12 single piston to R12 four piston. I also upgraded to R12 in the rear now.
