With over 75 track days on my ///M, I still run stock brakes... and I can slow down as fast or faster than the guys with a BBK... Of course I run brass caliper bushings and I have a set of Zimmerman 'track only' rotors, and depending on the track I run either PFC08's or PFC11's for pads.
At 60K, this year, I pulled the calipers and replaced the caliper seals and dust boots, more for preventive maintenance than anything else. I had some tearing in the front dust boots, most likely due to heat. The front caliper seals are a breeze to replace. The rears not so much, until I found a little $2.00 tool at HomeDepo, and then it was a snap.
There was absolutely no corrosion on the caliper pucks. I feel this is because the entire brake system is flushed at least once a year, due to track prep and maintenance.
