A vehicle's kinetic energy, during deceleration, is transformed into "heat" (thermal energy), without regard to its design, rotor/pad size, efficiency. Therefore a larger (rotor/pad) & better designed (more efficient) brake system would have a larger thermal capacity (heat sink) and can...

If ALL your drivings is on streets, strictly under the "legal speed limits" and never confront panic stops; then you may not even need to touch the brake in most cases. However any of a driving situation differs from the above a "human control" brake can save the loss in properties and lives...

What's your wheel size (or plan to have) for tracking?. Plaid comes standard 19" with 21" option. Just test fitted 420mm BBK and it comfortably fits under 21" but will not be for "OE" 19", although some aftermarket 19" may. Wouldn't it be preferable to use 19" than 21" for tracking?

Take a look at this table and learn yourself why Plaid is dangerously "under-brake" in any standard of being a production car, regardless how you're driving it - Street (which can easily turn into race tracks), drag, or hardcore racing. Brake system analysis for McLaren

According to the earlier (Sept 9) media the Plaid "Production Car" broke Nürburgring record, but in the recent media (Oct. 14) it disclosed a "Track Pack" will be available to break its own record. (or to correct the brake issue?) Since it never be logical for any company that can be so...

More specifically the REAR brakes are used for traction control, such as in Porsche 911 and McLaren which adds more stress to the rear over it's normal duty.

This is a common problem of a two piece rotor with conventional surface mount design. There is a cure for that - Center mount design. May be you can just replace the rotor.
