brake pads & brake fluid for track day

I see different brands of pads used at the track for W211. Do you recommend changing fluid as well?
What brand pads & fluid do you guys like? Do you get special purpose pads or will new street pads work?

Stock pads with >50% remaining and brand new stock fluid. The pro's use this setup during AMG Academy without problems. I have as well.

W211
I did an event back in the summer and flused my brake fluid with new OEM Mercedes fluid and also a new set of Akebono front pads. Rears were new from last year. Car did well for the one day event.
