Default Brake temps, anybody measured right after track sessions?

Curious if anyone has ever measured rotor temp right after a session.



I usually run 25 minute sessions and HP+ pads didn't cut it at the small course thats local to me and i'm doing Full course in September and looking into pads options.



One concern I have is I will be at least driving to a track with the track pads on if I switch to them, which is about a 1.5 hour drive and it's no uncommon to have to hit the brakes for deer on the route there.

I doubt that you're going to tax the breaks at heavily, but since you track it why not upgrade to come bigger better caliper/rotors?
