Having run Road Atlanta a few times, I would make sure that your brake pads are up to snuff - turn 10a at the end of the back straight can be rough on brakes, as can turn 1. Turn 6 after the short back straight can be rough on brakes for a newer driver as well. Road Atlanta is a very fast track. Last time I was there, my average speed was a little over 89mph in my s2000 if that gives you any indication.

I'd skip replacing the rotors. You can leave the stock brake pads, but expect for them to be toast by the end of the day, so I'd go ahead and upgrade.

Let me know if we can help you with anything. We will be down at Road Atlanta next weekend for Global Time Attack.
