RE: Brake questions
Well the NS are definately out then.
I personaly never did more than 3 consecutive laps on the ring (max 15 a day) but the B-Spec took it without effort and lasted for a lot longer too. Mind you the ring is actually not very brake intensive compared to other tracks (i.e. Dijon, Spa). So you might want to have a closer look at the HC+ (no to confuse with the HC-CS) - they are more fade resistant than the B-Spec but will wear the discs and themselfs faster. The HC-CS are slightly easier on the discs than the HC+ but offer less a bit less bite though much more linear (unless your setup is very balanced doubt you'll feel the difference)

Did a bit of looking up figures and the Carbotech XP8, Brembo HP2000 and B-Spec seam to be very similar (all go upto a max of around 600°C). The XP8 only starting at almost 100°C would be out of question for me (think about the drive to the track).
