I would get your brakes fixed, get a decent pad (Axxis ultimates?) and see how the car is.

Theres a bunch of us from BAIC that regularly compete AutoX.

The way I look at auto-x, in terms of maintenance, is like this... If the car is going to break at auto-x, it was going to happen anyways. It is only a matter of time. To be honest... you are going to go hard on the car for like what... 40 seconds. 60 seconds. It isn't like you are at a track day where you are running 20 minute sessions.
