We're just talking about tracking our cars long term 2-4 or more days per year and the typical 4 to 5 sessions a day, 20-25 minute each session kind of abuse.

You might wanna double check but the $600 ultimate care does not cover rotors. I asked, they said nope. Maybe because the rotor service doesn't come until after 37k miles? I couldn't find anything to back this up but from what I remember the $600 cost for ultimate care was just pads.

If you've never tracked your car, just take it the way it is and it will be more than enough. I'm still thinking about running stock pads and I'll have a baseline to compare some track pads to next time. But running stock pads as a long term solution to going to the track probably not gonna work too long.
My service rep said rotors ARE included if you pay the $600 to upgrade to wear & tear items.
I think you can even wait to do the upgrade at the service appointment where they try to charge you for the rotors!
