S brakes are not going to make any difference.
I’m not sure how to answer your comment. Where we run, and our run group vary pretty widely, and my car is highly modified. I Have GT3 brake ducts. I run either EBC Yellow Stuff or Pagid Black pads. Homestead has 40' elevation change. Watkins Glen has 4 down hill high speed brake zone the worst would be 140' downhill to a hairpin. VIR has 230' of elevation change downhill from Maple tree to the front straight. Summit Point has 400' of elevation change. This is a highly suggested conversion in the north east in white black and red run groups.
