Some questions regarding brake line and pad for those who track your C63

Hey guys,

thanks for click into this thread first of all.

my brake pads are about to wear out, so my question is what brake pad do you guys get after stocks worn out? OEM or after market? if it's aftermarket, which brand did you get?

and does stainless steel brake line help our car's brake?

Thanks in advance for any input.

i'll post some track pic i took at limerock raceway as compensation!





















unfortunately, there is no pic of my C63 in action b/c my friend and I were racing in the same session. enjoy
