I have a set of ZLE F/R calipers I might upgrade to, not so much of the stopping power, but to see if the pads last longer.

Only 3 days on OEM or 4 days on 1.11? Wow that's a polar opposite of my experience. In 2 recent days at Willow Springs running fast but not super fast laps, I had very little additional wear with well used DS 1.11.

I also only do 3 session per day and only stay out ~10 minutes, I find that my tires fall off after 10 min and then I'm wasting them on declining lap times, so I save the super expensive rubber for another few good hot laps the next session/day. I know most like to keep running for 15-20.

I typically only do 4-5 sessions a day with it, but most of the the time, the entire session. My brake usage might be a tad higher than others...
