Better pads like Pagids for the M Sport/M Performance Brakes and fresh brake fluid (even OEM BMW DOT4 brake fluid) is plenty for HPDEs.

I've consistently ran F80/82 M3/M4 brake pads in my M Sport Brakes when the car is shared between my girlfriend and myself at HPDEs. Of course, my powertrain is largely stock. so I wouldn't be going nearly as fast as M3/M4s down the straights to completely overwhelm their brake pads.
Idk if you meant to respond to me, but I'm not arguing any of your points. All I'm saying is if you disable rear braking, you risk the rear end coming around on your during hard braking. You need some bias to the rear to keep the car stable.
