Thanks great to hear.

I was posting from my phone yesterday so I didn't notice that you live in CA. Though I should have figured that out from the track layout you posted. So I wasn't making the connection that your pump gas is 91 octane and not 93. I suppose that could play a minor factor.

I never tracked my S2000 or BRZ with stock pads. Read a few horror stories about them falling apart from the heat; put Carbotechs on both of them. I still haven't tracked my Cayman yet (horrible, I know) and while I think the stock OEM pads might be okay, I plan on using Pagid Yellows. The first track I plan on taking her to is a pretty fast one.

The braking upgrade alone seems like enough reason to buy an STI over a WRX, if one plans to attend track days.
